Common Questions About Cleaning Up After Drug Use in Virginia
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.
Does residue remain after the items are removed?
It can. Powders and stains may stay on floors, furniture, bedding and in vents after the items are gone. That is why a team cleans and disinfects the surfaces and removes soft materials that cannot be cleaned. Ask what the plan covers.
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.
Does the cleanup include odor removal?
It can. Once soiled items are removed, a team can treat lingering odor in the air and on surfaces. Ask what methods the team uses and whether odor treatment is part of the plan or a separate step.
Can residue come through skin?
Some residues can harm people who touch them, and you cannot tell by looking which ones. That is why gloves are not a substitute for professional cleanup. If skin touches something unknown, wash with soap and water and call Poison Control.
How do you clean up drug residue?
Crews wear protective gear, remove sharps and loose items, and then clean hard surfaces with EPA-registered disinfectants. Porous materials such as carpet, padding or upholstery that took in residue may be removed. The team can explain what applies to your space.
