From testing to removing carpets and insulation, here's what it takes to rid a home of the toxic chemicals left behind after someone has cooked meth in a home.
Meth users tend to lead messy lives with lasting effects that linger long after they leave.
For every pound of meth produced, five to seven pounds of chemical waste is left behind.
