P contamination testing for my home in Auckland NZ

CASE STUDY THREE

meth testing kit is a meth solution for auckland testers who are verified

Stats:

Occupants: Single adult

Duration of Time in House: 8 months
​
Minimum contamination level: 0.1 ug/100cm2
Maximum contamination level: >10 ug/100cm2
Average Contamination level:  NA
​
​Likely Source of Contamination was Manufacture
This case study related to the purchase of a home in an urban area, which was occupied by a single adult. The home was not known to have been formerly used for the manufacture of methamphetamine at the time of purchase, as there was no notification on any searches undertaken during the sale of the property. When the property was purchased, the owner started renovation works and became unwell very soon after commencing these works. The owner became concerned about the property when she saw a newspaper article about police seizing manufacturing equipment and arresting the occupant of another property. She recognised the arrested individual as the former occupant of her property. The owner also notified the local council and was informed that the council was aware the home was formerly used to manufacture methamphetamine, but this information was not provided at the time of property sale. There was also information that the property had some level of remediation (details unknown), however testing after renovations were undertaken indicated that the property had been re-contaminated as a result of renovations. 

Health Effects

23 of the 63 participants of this study reported health effects as indicated by levels of contamination reported in the purple section of the below chart. This means that the adult conducting the work on this property and residing in this contaminated property may have suffered: Behavioural Issues, Heachaches, Sleep Disruption, Immune related disorder, Respiratory Issues, Eye issues and Skin irritation.  

The study states; "In terms of health effects reported by participants exposed in contaminated properties, these were consistently reported regardless of the source of the methamphetamine contamination. The only key difference in the health effects reported was a higher prevalence of eye and respiratory issues in properties known or suspected to have been contaminated from manufacture."
