Found Needle and Syringe Questions Answered for Murray Hill, Milwaukee, WI
Do I need to be on site?
In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask the team how access and keys can be arranged. Many teams can also arrive in an unmarked vehicle, so ask about that if privacy matters to you.
Are children at risk from found needles?
Yes, because children may pick up what they find. Teach children to stay back from any needle and tell an adult. If a child touches or is stuck by a needle, wash the area, get medical care and call Poison Control.
How long does a needle cleanup take?
A small yard or single room can be quick, while a building or large lot takes longer. Clutter, hidden spots and the amount of sharps affect the time. A cleanup team can give a realistic idea once it hears the details.
Does insurance cover needle cleanup?
Sometimes. Some homeowners and renters policies cover cleanup after a covered event, and many do not cover needles on their own. Call your insurance company before work starts, take photos from a safe spot, and keep every receipt. Check your policy rather than assuming.
What if I find needles in a vacant building?
Do not go in to look. Report it to the owner, the local health department or a cleanup team. A team can sweep the whole building in protective gear, remove the sharps and give the owner a record of the work.
Can needles be hidden inside furniture or walls?
They can be tucked into couch cushions, mattress seams, drawers, vents and ceiling tiles. That is why a sharps sweep covers more than the floor. Crews check hidden spots with tools and light before declaring a room clear.
