What Burbank Property Owners Ask About Fentanyl Cleanup

Can residue be on clothing or belongings?

It can. Clothing, bedding, bags and furniture in an affected space may carry powder. Do not shake them out. A team can advise on what to bag, clean or discard.

Does insurance cover fentanyl cleanup?

It depends on the policy. Some policies cover certain contamination cleanup, and others exclude drug-related damage. Read your policy and call the insurance company before cleanup starts. Take photos from a safe spot and keep every receipt.

Can children and pets be near the area?

No. Keep them out until a cleanup team has finished. Children and pets are close to floors and furniture and are most at risk from residue. If one touches or swallows something unknown, call Poison Control or 911.

How much does fentanyl decontamination cost?

It depends on the size of the space, how far residue has spread, the materials involved and the gear needed. A cleanup team can give a real price after seeing or hearing about the site, and it should explain what is included before work starts.

Can I clean fentanyl residue myself?

It is not recommended. Sweeping, wiping and vacuuming can lift fine powder into the air. Leave the area, keep people and pets out, and call 911 in an emergency or Poison Control with questions. Then ask a cleanup team about decontamination.

How long does fentanyl residue stay on surfaces?

Residue can stay until it is cleaned, and no one can tell by looking. That is why a closed area should be left alone until a cleanup team has cleaned it. You can ask the team to explain the methods it uses and how it checks the work.

Found fentanyl powder or residue in Burbank, CA?

Do not touch or sweep it. A cleanup team contains the area and cleans it safely.
