To clarify, pest control and delousing themselves are not considered horrific or shameful practices. However, the context in which they were used during the Holocaust is what is problematic.
In the case of delousing, it was crucial for maintaining hygiene and preventing the spread of diseases such as typhus, which was a significant problem in the overcrowded and unsanitary conditions of the camps. However, the use of Zyklon B for delousing in the camps was often done in an inhumane and brutal way, and many prisoners suffered greatly as a result.
Regarding pest control, while it is necessary to control the spread of pests to maintain public health, the indiscriminate and inhumane use of pesticides as a means of genocide is a shameful and horrifying act. The use of Zyklon B in this way, as part of the Nazi's genocide of millions of innocent people, is a tragic and shameful aspect of the Holocaust.
Regarding the use of Zyklon B in gas chambers, the highly toxic nature of the substance meant that the gas chambers needed to be thoroughly ventilated and cleared after each use to prevent any potential harm to the Nazi officials running the extermination operation. However, the victims themselves were not considered in this process, and often suffered enormously before they were killed.
In conclusion, the use of Zyklon B during the Holocaust was highly problematic and contributed to what is widely regarded as one of the greatest tragedies of human history.
