Drug production sites, such as methamphetamine labs or fentanyl-contaminated areas, pose significant health and safety risks due to toxic chemicals and hazardous residues. We specialize in professional drug lab cleanup services in Oklahoma, ensuring contaminated sites are restored to safe and habitable conditions. Our trained biohazard technicians handle every cleanup with precision and care, following rigorous protocols to eliminate risks.
The production of methamphetamine and handling of fentanyl involve highly toxic substances that can contaminate surfaces, air, and even water sources.
For example, the production of one pound of methamphetamine can generate over five pounds of toxic waste. These chemical residues are not only harmful to the environment but can also cause severe health problems for anyone exposed to them.
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.
