Fentanyl Cleanup Questions From Radford and City of Radford

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.

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.

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.

Who pays for fentanyl cleanup at a rental?

Owners usually carry the cost of cleaning their own property. For rentals, the lease and local law decide who is responsible, and a landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say. Businesses and fleet owners should check their commercial policies.

Responders finished, but the cleaning is left in Radford?

Describe what you found and where, and the team will explain how decontamination works.
