[OPSEC/Computer] How clean should a clean house be?

Hey, I'm not at risk for LE investigations but my question is the following: what is possible compromising evidence that you should get rid off before LE pays you a visit?

Obviously all paraphernalia as well as the product itself need to disappear. But what about a flash drive with Tails on it? If you destroy your flash drive, you lose all keys with it as well as your passwords. Since my keys are on the persistent volume which is protected by a password and Tails doesn't store information about your Tor sessions, is it still cool to have the flash drive in your house? Password is of coursen not "1234"-tier.

I'm a personal amount buyer in Europe to put things in perspective. Just wanna cover my ass if things go bad.

Do the dishesh daily, keep the kitchen clean to prevent ants and bugs. Dust maybe once a week. Keep clutter to a minimum and don't let your laundry get out of hand.

You have to bury the USB in the woods, record the coordinates and then buy a lottery ticket with the recorded coordinates so you can inconspicuously remember them.

Well nothing wrong with having Tails. Not much they can do if they find it and I'm sure you can sue for "destruction of property" if they decide to just wipe it clean "for good measure". I encrypt stuff that isn't illegal, just don't want anyone else to find it, as it's none of their business. Which is the point of it all. It's none of their business. Fuck that "If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear" bullshit.

About this clean.

Law enforcement enforce the law.

You need them to not find drugs because they are illegal. Bitcoins are legal, TOR is legal, frequenting darknet marketplaces isn't a crime. You can't be arrested for your grinder, bong, syringes, or crack pipe.

Scales and baggies are used as evidence of dealing, IF drugs are found. Which is very unfair, I bet every one of my customers has electronic scales. All vendors know that if you can source cryptocurrency, you probably have scales. That's why when you buy a gram on the darknet, its usually 1.08g or something.

If you buy a gram of street coke in the UK, you get 0.7g of 25% coke. 0.7 is a "coke gram", because you've been drinking and don't have your electronic balance.

If you buy a gram on the darknet, you get 1.05g of 71% coke.

I'd be cleaning my shit up like a murder took place there. Hell, vacuum the carpet. Even crumbs are enough to warrant looking into it further

Wouldn't you just put it all someplace that isn't at risk of being searched? You can hide a flash drive anywhere-put it behind an obscure book in the library, for instance.
