Fentanyl Residue Questions Answered for Downtown, Albuquerque, NM
What if I find powder at work or in a public place?
Do not touch it, and keep others away. Tell a supervisor or the property manager and call 911 if anyone is ill. A cleanup team can clean the area afterward. Employers should also follow their own safety procedures.
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.
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.
Is it safe to reenter after cleanup?
A careful cleanup removes the residue it covers, and a final inspection checks the work. Rules for testing vary by place. Ask the team what was done and what was not checked, and ask the local health department what applies.
