It is the testing, removal and cleaning of a property where methamphetamine was made or heavily used. A professional team samples surfaces, removes materials that cannot be cleaned, cleans the rest and tests again. The goal is to show that the property is fit for use. It is not a job for household cleaners.
Contaminated materials are sealed, labeled and hauled away. Some may need to be handled as regulated waste, and rules vary by location. Ask the team how its waste is hauled and disposed of, and ask for records of it at the end of the job.
Specialized cleaning methods, not everyday sprays. Crews remove porous materials that hold residue, then clean hard surfaces and air systems in a set order. Household cleaners can spread residue, so a cleanup team and its testing plan are the safer route.
Possible signs include strong chemical or ammonia-like smells, stained or discolored walls, burn marks, unusual equipment and unexplained headaches or irritation. These are not proof on their own. Testing is the only way to confirm residue.
No. Keep children and pets out of the affected areas until cleanup and retesting are done. They are closest to floors and furniture and are most at risk from residue. Find another place to stay if you can.
