What are the health effects of living in a contaminated home?
Reported effects include headaches, nausea, coughing, throat and eye irritation and skin problems. Children and pets are closest to floors and furniture. Anyone who feels ill should see a doctor or call Poison Control and mention the property.
Does the Texas victim compensation program pay for meth lab cleanup?

Why does testing matter?
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.
What is the law for meth cleanup in Texas?
Rules for drug lab cleanup vary by state, county and city. The local health department or the property owner's attorney can confirm what testing and clearance apply where you live. A cleanup team can explain its own process and what records you get.
