Safer options exist. Many cities and health departments have programs for found needles and may give instructions or send someone. If you are unsure, do not touch it. Leaving a needle in place and keeping others away is safer than risking a stick.
Lease terms and local law decide. A landlord, an attorney or a tenant rights group can say who is responsible. In many cases the property owner books the sweep first so the unit can be used again, and the cost is sorted out afterward.
