6. Immediately after the search at night, the owner should recite Bitul Hamess (the first of two), an annulment/renunciation of hamess in his possession. As most people will continue owning and benefiting from hamess until the morning, this first bitul is directed only to hamess that the owner does not know about. One should understand what he is saying. If one does not understand the traditional Aramaic words of the bitul formula (found at the beginning of the Hagaddah or Mahzor), he should recite it in English.
