@Mike Gallagher Hi Mike, are you looking for a good location for your meth operation? LOL JK.

You can try Meth Lab Cleanup LLC, they provide test kits for $50 that includes their lab testing. Not sure the turnaround time. http://www.methlabcleanup.com/testing.htm

Also try SKC, Inc. They have a do-it-yourself kit with no lab needed. http://www.skcinc.com/prod/560-002.asp

Baking soda turns purple if it comes in contact with Iodine ( a key ingredient in Meth production). You could bring a vacuum and a few boxes of baking soda. Not a very reliable method but could give you a qucik first level screening.

Good luck!
