Found Needle and Syringe Questions Answered for Country Valley-Hawthorn Square, Kansas City, MO
Should I recap or bend a needle?
No. Recapping or bending a used needle is one of the most common ways people get stuck. Leave it where it is and let a cleanup team lift it with a tool and place it in a container.
Is a lancet or insulin needle a sharp?
Yes. Insulin pen needles, lancets and similar small devices are sharps, even though they are used for health care. They should go into a rigid container, never loose into trash.
Can a landlord order a sharps sweep for a rental?
Yes. A property owner can call a cleanup team to search a unit or building. Lease terms and local law decide who pays, and a landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say. Ask the team for a record of what was found and removed.
Are pets at risk from needles?
Yes. Dogs and cats may sniff, chew or step on sharps. Keep pets away from the area until a cleanup team has searched it. If a pet is stuck or swallowed something, call a veterinarian right away.
Are children at risk from found needles?
Yes, because children may pick up what they find. Teach children to stay back from any needle and tell an adult. If a child touches or is stuck by a needle, wash the area, get medical care and call Poison Control.
Can I get a disease from a needle stick?
A used needle can carry bloodborne pathogens such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV. The chance of infection from one stick depends on many things, and a doctor can explain what applies. Get medical care promptly after any stick or cut.
