Drug Paraphernalia and Residue Questions From Claymont and New Castle County
Can residue come through skin?
Some residues can harm people who touch them, and you cannot tell by looking which ones. That is why gloves are not a substitute for professional cleanup. If skin touches something unknown, wash with soap and water and call Poison Control.
What should I do if I find an unknown powder?
Do not touch, sweep or smell it, and do not try to clean it up first. Keep children and pets away. If anyone touched or swallowed it, call Poison Control, or 911 in an emergency. Then call a cleanup team to remove it safely.
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.
Is this medical or legal advice?
No. This page explains how drug paraphernalia cleanup works. It is not medical, legal or insurance advice. For symptoms, contact a doctor or Poison Control, and for legal questions, ask an attorney.
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.
Can I clean up after a family member myself?
It is safer not to. You often cannot tell what an item or residue is, and hidden sharps are a risk. Do not mix cleaning products. A cleanup team has the protective gear and containers to do it safely, without judgment.
