Common Questions About Fentanyl Exposure and Cleaning in Mineral Wells

Does the Texas victim compensation program cover fentanyl cleanup?

Cleanup after drug activity is generally not part of the Texas Crime Victims' Compensation Program, which pays up to $2,250 for crime scene cleanup after certain crimes. Ask the Attorney General's office at (800) 983-9933 whether a specific case qualifies.

Do I need to be at the property?

Often not. In many cases the person who calls does not need to be on site. The team may need access, keys and a point of contact. Ask how that can be arranged, especially if you are out of town or the space is vacant.

Is this medical or legal advice?

No. This page explains how fentanyl decontamination works. It is not medical, legal or insurance advice. For symptoms, contact a doctor or Poison Control, and for questions about what must be reported, ask an attorney or the local health department.

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 is the waste handled?

Contaminated materials are sealed in labeled containers and hauled away. Rules vary by location, and some waste may need special handling. Ask the team how its waste is hauled and disposed of, and ask for records at the end of the job.

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.

Not sure it is safe to clean it yourself in Mineral Wells, TX?

Crews use controlled methods that keep powder from spreading.
