Meth Lab Cleanup Services

Your safety is our business and Bio Clean Services is state certified in the remediation of Meth Lab Clean Up.  You should NEVER attempt to clean up a meth lab site yourself.

Methamphetamine or “Meth” production is an extremely dangerous process.  The ingredients used to create (cook) meth and other compounds can cause severe damage to your organs, respiratory system, can cause chemical type burns of your skin and lung tissues and may even cause death. The after affects of producing these substances can also cause contamination of any surface of structure associated and can potentially cause contamination of plumbing, HVAC systems and even exterior structures of the site. 

You must employ a professional bio-hazard cleaning company to protect yourself against possible contamination.  It takes certified trained professionals experienced in decontamination to restore a former meth lab to a safe environment. Depending on the severity of the scene and the amount or production from a meth lab, this process could range from 3 to 30 days.  Bio Clean Services will access the scene and develop a comprehensive work plan prior to beginning the tasks.  This work plan may also include pertinent information from state or local authorities or DEA and a plan of action for the safe removal of any equipment used to manufacture meth that is found at the scene.

The list of materials and chemicals used to manufacturer methamphetamines are typically all poisonous chemicals that make this one of the most dangerous scenes to clean.  These chemicals can literally invade every type of surface that could linger for as long as a decade if not properly remediated. These surfaces can also remain toxic indefinitely unless properly decontaminated so it’s crucial to employ experts for these dangerous tasks.

If you need assistance with clean up of a meth lab or other contaminated scene, please contact us immediately.  For more information on what to do if you discover a meth lab or suspect that there are contaminated areas where you reside, you can contact your local authorities, or locate more resources by visiting the Drug Enforcement Administration website.

Meth Lab Cleanup Services

Methamphetamine labs are more than just dangerous and illegal biohazard scenes. They always leave a dangerous mess and huge environmental hazards that must be cleaned up. Bio Clean Services offers meth lab clean up in Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.  This growing epidemic is huge and can be found anywhere from multi-million dollar homes in metropolitan areas to the most remote rural areas you can get to.

Many of the areas we service are ranked among the highest meth lab production states in the nation. The rate of seizures in meth labs has grown tremendously over the past 3 years and is continuing to steadily rise.

The growth of meth lab popularity may be attributed to the ease of “cooking” the dangerous and highly addictive drugs. Anyone can use pseudoephedrine, household chemicals and a plastic soda bottle to produce the drug. The problems lie in the hazards associated with the drug cooking. These methods can cause explosions that can blow holes through walls, start fires and contaminate any surface in a huge perimeter of where the drug is made.

Bio Clean Services is professionally trained in the clean up and removal of these biohazards. Our services, when performed, remediate an area to a safe, disinfected state with any trace of the drugs existence eliminated. Some meth houses may not need the entire residence decontaminated, just certain rooms or areas where levels of certain toxins exceed state law. We access the areas and a cleanup plan is crafted. Any porous materials, such as carpet, must be removed. Decontaminate is applied. When the cleanup is completed, another test is conducted to make sure the levels are acceptable to what regulations consider safe.

Certain states have funds set aside for the cleanup of these scenes however, depending on the state, the cleanup cost may be the responsibility of the property owner. Contact us today for more information about these and other services we provide.

Wishing everyone a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend!

Bio Clean Services would like to take the opportunity to thank all of our clients and the industries that refer our company to them. We appreciate the opportunity to serve our 4 state region and offer assistance in a very traumatic or dangerous time in their lives.

We hope that everyone has a safe and fun filled Fourth of July weekend.  As certified cleanup technicians for Death, Trauma, Crime, Blood, Suicide and many other forms of biohazards our company sees increased service volumes during holidays like July 4th.  This is typically a time that families spend together, vacationing and travel increases.

Many local towing and transport service providers offer discounted or free services during major holidays to help everyone arrive at their destination safely.  We are experienced in cleanup from traumatic auto and motorcycle accidents and we can’t stress enough the importance of utilizing these services.  We appreciate the business but would much rather our friends and neighbors not have to be faced with traumatic incidents that require our services.

If you need more information about the types of services that we provide or our qualifications and how we can assist you, please contact our office for complete details.  Again, we hope that everyone has a safe and happy holiday weekend and we look forward to offering continuing services in the years to come.

Property owners unaware of dangerous biohazards

Over the past decade the failing real estate market has ruined many homeowners across the country.  With the market decline and unemployment being at an all time high, there has also been a significant increase in the amount of illegal drug activity in our country.

Homeowners have been forced to relinquish their homes to the bank or mortgage company due to inability to make payments. Some homeowners elected to rent out their properties to individuals to cover the cost of the mortgage in an attempt to not face the financial devastation.  What these homeowners turned landlords didn’t expect was the dangerous rise in drug activities that turned may ordinary residential properties into full blow meth labs and illegal drug houses.

Bio Clean Services is experienced in the clean up, removal and remediation of these types of drug scenes. Not only is this type of activity illegal, there are extreme dangers to the health of anyone who comes in contact with these homes. The manufacturing of these substances ( or cooking as it’s sometimes called ) are not only hazardous to the health of the occupants, but animals, residents in the immediate surrounding areas and even the clean up personnel that have to restore these scenes to a safe environment.  The chemicals and methods used to manufacture these types of drugs are extremely flammable and one small explosion can blast through walls causing destruction to anything in it’s path.

Clean up of these biohazard substances and chemicals should never be attempted by an untrained individual. Bio Clean Services is certified in the removal and disposal process associated with these biohazards.  Our technicians are specifically trained to clean and disinfect all areas that have been affected by the chemicals, residue and paraphernalia that always remain in these homes.  We work closely with authorities and property owners to ensure that these homes are returned to a safe environment for the owner, surrounding neighbors and anyone who may come in contact with the property after our work is done.

Due to the severity of these types of chemicals and substances, it’s often necessary for our technicians to remove materials from the structure such as plumbing, flooring, walls and other items and dispose of the materials properly. We work directly with our contractors to ensure that these homes are restored to a pre-incident, safe condition.

If you own or manage a property that has been condemned because of illegal drug manufacturing or activity, please contact our office today for assistance.  We offer 24 hour dispatch and are able to respond immediately to help you ensure the safety of anyone affected by these incidents.

Hidden Biohazards Found in Foreclosed Homes

Our country has been faced with tens of thousands of foreclosures over the past few years and although the market appears to be strengthening foreclosure is still a harsh reality for many homeowners. Bio Clean Services provides services to clean up foreclosed homes and return them to a safe and disinfected habitable property for banks, real estate companies and private owners.

It is not uncommon for foreclosed properties to be left in an unsanitary condition when occupants move out.  Often times these homes are subject to vandalism or squatters who leave these homes soiled with urine, feces, dangerous drug paraphernalia and other harmful substance. This creates a nightmare for banks and real estate companies who try to market these homes for resale.

In circumstances like these, the bank or real estate personnel are not trained to clean or remediate the properties therefore they rely on the services of a professional biohazard clean up company like Bio Clean Services.  We posses extensive experience in handling these types of difficult cleaning jobs. We also perform Hoarding, death, suicide, trauma and crime scene cleanup jobs in the North Eastern United States.  We provide complete removal of biohazards, sanitation and restoration of these properties or scenes to a habitable condition.

Different areas of the country can be especially difficult because of warmer climates and the large number of swimming pools that are not properly maintained in a foreclosure situation. These properties are also more susceptible to vandalism from people who try to intentionally destroy the property.  If you are a bank or private owners, you may be liable to your local authorities if these types of hazards go unattended.  We work with many banks and private homeowners to clean up biohazard scenes that happen while a property is being marketed.

If you need this type of scene clean up or decontamination guidance, please contact our office for more information on the services we provide and areas we cover.  We are available 24 hours a day with emergency response dispatch and can assist with procedures for insurance claims and other payment assistance options.

What are the dangers of synthetic marijuana uses and their biohazards

Synthetic marijuana is marketed as a legal “high” in today’s society and the deaths and serious Illnesses from its use are on the rise.  Commonly called Spice, No More Mr. Nice Guy and K2 ( or hundreds of others ) these drugs are legally marketed for sale and can be obtained by most everyone in neighborhood convenience stores, smoke shops and other retailers across the country.

Although marketed as a legal marijuana in reality it’s very different from the natural cannabis that smokers enjoy.  The synthetic version contains powerful chemicals called “cannabimimetics” that can cause serious health effects and possibly death.  These drugs are not tested for safety and uses have no idea what they are putting into their bodies when using them.  In addition to the synthetic drugs being highly addictive, health effects from the drugs can be serious and possibly fatal and have symptoms including:

• Nausea and vomiting
• Increased heart rate and higher blood pressure
Agitation and Anxiety
• Seizures, Tremors and muscle spasms
• Hallucinations and psychotic episodes
Suicidal and harmful thoughts & actions
Death   

This drug is wreaking havoc on our youth especially and has been labeled by many state and federal government officials as a public health risk and a hazard to public safety.  There has been a huge influx of calls to poison centers in the past 2 years yet this drug remains an unattended problem.

Bio Clean Services offers services that deal with the trauma and clean up of deaths associated from this and other drug uses.  We are also trained to clean up meth labs and other biohazard areas which may be contaminated by illegal drug manufacturing and the deaths and trauma associated with it.

If you know someone who is using this or other illegal drugs we urge you to seek help for these individuals immediately.  Should you find yourself in need of our decontamination, death or suicide clean up services, contact our office immediately. We have technicians standing by to provide services 24 hours a day 7 days per week.
