Dangers associated with a

shipped to the U.S. and returns as laundered

cash, guns, heroin and ecstacy.

• Alterations made to a grow house may

make the house uninhabitable for future

residents without major repairs.

• There is a risk of violence and residual

crime in neighbourhoods linked with

this illegal activity.

• Theft of electricity leads to higher utility

bills for ALL paying customers.

• Grow houses are 40 times more likely to

have fires than normal houses.

• Shock and electrocution hazards can be

created by illegal electrical bypasses

charging the ground.

• Emergency responders are exposed to

hazardous conditions.

• Grow houses may be 'booby-trapped' to

injure or kill trespassers and emergency

service workers.

• Health hazards associated with a marijuana

grow house are caused by mould,

mildew and chemicals that are used in

plant growth. These can result in respiratory

problems & allergies.
