Risk depends on the amount and the form. Breathing powder or getting it in the mouth or eyes is the main concern, and brief skin contact is generally less risky. Still, avoid touching it. If it happens, wash with soap and water and call Poison Control.
A careful cleanup removes the residue it covers, and a final inspection checks the work. Rules for testing vary by place. Ask the team what was done and what was not checked, and ask the local health department what applies.
Owners usually carry the cost of cleaning their own property. For rentals, the lease and local law decide who is responsible, and a landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say. Businesses and fleet owners should check their commercial policies.

It depends on the policy. Some policies cover certain contamination cleanup, and others exclude drug-related damage. Read your policy and call the insurance company before cleanup starts. Take photos from a safe spot and keep every receipt.
