Drug Paraphernalia Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Calhoun, GA
Is drug paraphernalia a biohazard?
It can be. Used syringes and other sharps can carry bloodborne germs, and residue can harm people who touch or swallow it. A cleanup team can look at what is there and explain how it should be handled. Do not touch it until then.
Is this the same as meth lab cleanup?
No. Drug paraphernalia cleanup removes used items and cleans surfaces. A site where drugs were made is a different job with its own testing and clearance steps. If you think drugs were made in the home, say so when you call.
What if children or pets live in the home?
Keep them out of affected rooms until a cleanup team has finished. Children and pets are closest to floors and furniture and are most at risk from residue. If a child or pet touches or swallows something, call Poison Control or a veterinarian.
What about drug use in a vehicle?
Vehicles can hold syringes, residue and odor in seats, carpets and vents. Ask whether the team cleans vehicles and how soft materials are treated. Crews use the same protective gear and sealed containers as in a building.
Who cleans up after a police drug raid?
Police and the city do not usually clean the space afterward. The owner or the family books the cleanup once the scene is released. A cleanup team can work after the release and explain the steps. Ask the agency when the space is cleared.
What should I do if I find an unknown powder?
Do not touch, sweep or smell it, and do not try to clean it up first. Keep children and pets away. If anyone touched or swallowed it, call Poison Control, or 911 in an emergency. Then call a cleanup team to remove it safely.
