And the best part? Hidden Hazards also covers fentanyl. A rapidly growing drug in the United States, fentanyl is often transported and stored in properties as opposed to being cooked (as meth is). However, this is not to detract from the danger that the drug poses. For the average adult, two milligrams of fentanyl is considered to be a lethal dose [2]. That’s about the size of 10 grains of table salt! Fentanyl is a dirty substance, so make sure to take precautions and determine how to deal with it properly the first time it’s encountered! Learn about some of the similarities and differences between meth and fentanyl when it comes to testing and decontaminating properties, alongside how to avoid potential exposure.
