Fentanyl Decontamination Frequently Asked Questions in Green Acres, Detroit, MI

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.

Does a cleanup team test for fentanyl?

Some teams offer sampling and some do not. Rules for testing and clearance vary by place. Ask the team what it checks, and ask the local health department what applies where you live.

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.

What should I do if someone may have been exposed?

Call 911 if the person cannot be woken, is breathing slowly or is very drowsy. For other questions, call Poison Control. Get away from the area and wash skin with soap and water. Tell responders what you found and where, so they can act safely.

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.

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.
