The February SACC general meeting featured an informative presentation by Officer Dean Sturgeon of the Louisville Metro Police 4th Division on the dangers of meth labs.
Some telltale signs of a meth lab are:
-Strong chemical odors
-Large numbers of empty pill bottles or blister packs
-Propane tanks with blue corrosion on fittings
-Stripped lithium batteries
-Soft drink bottles with hoses attached
-Excessive amounts of trash
-Large quantities of drain cleaner, paint thinner, toulene, denatured alcohol, ammonia, starter fluid, antifreeze, hydrogen peroxide, rock salt or iodine.
The Metro Police Department recommends that if you suspect a property may be an illegal lab, you contact them and stay away from the area. Meth labs present dangers from explosion and exposure to hazardous chemicals. Visit www.drugfree.org/Meth for more information.
