I have written about
the P Lab problem a couple of times over the last few years. The first time was
when the discovery of P Labs was fairly rare. Today the police are finding a
new lab every 45 hours, and about two-thirds of these are operated from rented
accommodation. It is such a problem
nowadays that it can no longer be ignored. In my view landlords and property
managers need to consider incorporating methamphetamine checks into their
property management regime.
Meth contamination is a
serious risk to those living in a contaminated building, especially children.
According to some reports the short-term health problems range
from migraines,
nausea, respiratory difficulties, and skin
irritations. Long-term problems may include cancer.
