Common Questions About Cleaning Up After Drug Use in Wailuku
What if someone is stuck by a needle?
Wash the area with soap and water and get medical care right away. Call 911 in an emergency. Poison Control can answer exposure questions. Tell the doctor what happened and where the needle was found, if you know.
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.
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.
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.
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.
How much does drug paraphernalia cleanup cost?
The price depends on the number of rooms and items, how much soft material must go, odor treatment, travel and access. A cleanup team can give a real price after hearing the details and should explain what is included before work begins.
