Yes. Insulin pen needles, lancets and similar small devices are sharps, even though they are used for health care. They should go into a rigid container, never loose into trash.
It is a rigid, puncture-resistant box with a locking lid, made to hold needles, syringes, lancets and blades. Cleanup teams use them to seal sharps for transport. Containers should not be overfilled or opened again once locked.
Sealed, puncture-resistant containers are hauled as regulated medical waste to a facility that treats it. In Texas, companies that haul other people's untreated medical waste register with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). Ask the team how its waste is hauled and request a record.
No. Do not search for them yourself. Tell the team what you have seen and where, and the crew will check the rest of the space in protective gear. Searching by hand is how many sticks happen.
