Guest using Meth in Air BnB

I am still a new host and air bnb has not been what I expected so far to say the least. I have a guest who booked yesterday for a week. He had a new profile and not much info, so I was a little suspicious but let him book anyways. I saw a post from another Omaha host about a guy smoking weed and leaving meth traces (and used needles) scattered at her place, so I asked her who the guy was. Of course it's the same guy! He has 6 more nights booked and I need to get him out asap. Do I have permission to let the cops enter that apartment if I smell drugs? What rights does he have? I found his felony meth arrest from 2014 if that matters.

I'm not an AirBnB host so I don't understand the nuances of the platform. Are there any filters that you hosts are able to put in place? I would imagine that you could have that guest blocked from Air BnB but they will just urn around and set up a new profile under a different name. It sounds to me that the instant booking option is not a good idea from what I can tell.
