No. Keep children and pets out of the affected areas until cleanup and retesting are done. They are closest to floors and furniture and are most at risk from residue. Find another place to stay if you can.
It depends on the policy. Many homeowners policies exclude contamination from drug production, while some cover parts of it. Read your policy and call the insurance company before cleanup starts, then take photos and keep every receipt.
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 property is vacant.
Specialized cleaning methods, not everyday sprays. Crews remove porous materials that hold residue, then clean hard surfaces and air systems in a set order. Household cleaners can spread residue, so a cleanup team and its testing plan are the safer route.
Only after law enforcement releases the property. Investigators handle evidence and any dangerous chemicals first. Once the site is released, you can book testing and cleanup as the owner. Ask the agency when the release happens.
Because residue is usually invisible. Testing shows which rooms and materials are affected, guides the cleanup plan and later shows whether the work succeeded. Reports from before and after the job are what buyers, lenders, insurers and local officials often ask to see.
