What should I do if I find a needle?
Stay back and keep children and pets away. Do not pick it up. Note where it is and call the local health department or a cleanup team. If anyone is stuck or cut, wash with soap and water, get medical care, and call 911 in an emergency.
Can a landlord order a sharps sweep for a rental?

Will the city remove needles at no charge?

Who pays for needle removal at a rental property?
