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.

What should I do if I find a needle?

Stay back and keep children and pets away. Do not pick it up. Note where it is and call the local health department or a cleanup team. If anyone is stuck or cut, wash with soap and water, get medical care, and call 911 in an emergency.
