A tester wipes or swabs defined areas of walls, floors, vents and other surfaces and sends the samples to a lab. The results show which areas hold residue. Testing happens before cleanup to plan the work and again afterward to check it.
Contaminated materials are sealed, labeled and hauled away. Some may need to be handled as regulated waste, and rules vary by location. Ask the team how its waste is hauled and disposed of, and ask for records of it at the end of the job.
Some hard items can be cleaned. Porous items such as upholstery, mattresses, curtains and carpets often cannot, because residue soaks into them. The team can advise on what is likely to be removed and what can be tested.
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.
