It can. Powders and stains may stay on floors, furniture, bedding and in vents after the items are gone. That is why a team cleans and disinfects the surfaces and removes soft materials that cannot be cleaned. Ask what the plan covers.
The owner of the property usually pays at first. Lease terms and local law decide who is responsible in the end. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say. Keep any record the cleanup team gives you, since a landlord or insurer may ask for it.
Crews wear protective gear, remove sharps and loose items, and then clean hard surfaces with EPA-registered disinfectants. Porous materials such as carpet, padding or upholstery that took in residue may be removed. The team can explain what applies to your space.
A careful cleanup removes the items and cleans the surfaces it covers. Testing is a separate step, and rules vary by place. Ask the team what it did and did not check, and ask the local health department what applies where you live.
Do not touch, sweep or smell it, and do not try to clean it up first. Keep children and pets away. If anyone touched or swallowed it, call Poison Control, or 911 in an emergency. Then call a cleanup team to remove it safely.
Some residues can harm people who touch them, and you cannot tell by looking which ones. That is why gloves are not a substitute for professional cleanup. If skin touches something unknown, wash with soap and water and call Poison Control.
Ask about discreet arrival in an unmarked vehicle if privacy matters.
