Drug Paraphernalia Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Manitou Springs, CO

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.

Is the home safe to live in afterward?

A careful cleanup removes the items and cleans the surfaces it covers. Testing is a separate step, and rules vary by place. Ask the team what it did and did not check, and ask the local health department what applies where you live.

What should I do if someone is unresponsive?

Call 911 right away. Cleanup can wait. After the emergency is over and the space is released, a cleanup team can handle the items and residue left behind.

Do cleanup teams test for drugs?

Standard paraphernalia cleanup is about removal, cleaning and disinfection. Testing is a separate step, usually tied to a site where drugs were made. Ask the team and the local health department what testing, if any, applies to your property.

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.

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.
