What Homestead Property Owners and Families Ask About Paraphernalia Cleanup

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.

Do I need to be there during the work?

In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask the team how access and keys can be arranged. If you are out of town, say so when you call. Many teams can arrive in an unmarked vehicle.

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.

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.

Is it okay to throw paraphernalia in the trash?

Loose syringes should never go in household trash, because they can stab sanitation workers. Other items may carry residue. A cleanup team seals and disposes of everything the safe way.

Is this medical or legal advice?

No. This page explains how drug paraphernalia cleanup works. It is not medical, legal or insurance advice. For symptoms, contact a doctor or Poison Control, and for legal questions, ask an attorney.
