Expert METH LAB AND FENTANYL CLEANUP

What Is Meth Lab and Fentanyl Cleanup?

The chemicals used in methamphetamine and other drug production vary and are highly dangerous — and there can be a lot of those chemicals. A single pound of methamphetamine, for example, can create five or more pounds of toxic waste. Professional biohazard cleaners address chemical residue, equipment, paraphernalia, and other drug lab remnants. Meth lab cleanup services remove health dangers and restore a site to a safe, inhabitable space.

Cleaning drug labs is a dangerous process that requires a proven strategy, protective gear, and specialized skills. The cleanup process includes remediation of the structure, surface water, groundwater, and other outdoor areas. Cavins Group biohazard technicians undergo rigorous training to safely decontaminate grow houses, meth labs, and other hazardous, illegal sites. 

Walls, floors, ceilings, and other porous surfaces can be contaminated during drug production. Every meth lab cleanup begins with a comprehensive analysis and ends with a guaranteed safe environment. Cavins Group follows a proven process to ensure the highest level of safety and the most complete decontamination possible. 

Drug lab remediation is necessary to protect the future inhabitants of a site. If cleaning is not done properly, people's lives will be in danger. We use the inspection to create a complete cleaning process, including where to clean and the degree of cleaning required. 

Professional biohazard cleanup teams understand the dangers they face and depend on various elements of personal protective equipment (PPE) for safety. PPE for fentanyl cleanup may include full face respirators, disposable gloves, steel-toe rubber boots, shoe covers, hazmat suits, and respiratory protection. Once the team is protected, they isolate the scene to avoid cross-contamination and exposure.

In many drug lab cleanups, most of the remediation focuses on the structure. Most of the contents will be removed and eventually destroyed. Every contaminated surface is treated to break down dangerous compounds and neutralize them. Our teams use proprietary equipment to remove chemical residue, airborne pollutants, and other contaminated elements. 

After completing the most comprehensive drug lab decontamination process available, Cavins Group relies on testing the site for contamination. Once verifies the area is safe for habitation, Cavins Group can release the property to the appropriate parties. 

Cavins Group concludes the drug lab cleanup process by providing a Safe to Occupy Certification that meets all requirements. The certificate ensures that our biohazard technicians have followed EPA-developed guidelines created as a result of the Methamphetamine Remediation Research Act of 2005. In addition to these protocols, our teams rely on guidance from OSHA, the CDC, and other organizations for the highest degree of safety.
