Hi, I'm currently trying to get my daughter back into my custody.. She's been gone for about a year now. Recently maybe 2 months ago we had a supervised visit in my home and there was a marijuana roach found on my floor.. I went through everything they asked.. 2 mental health assessments hair follicle and a urine test and everything was clean, they allowed me to continue.. Now I've recently had another supervised visit where she found ANOTHER one in my home.. I am currently moving and had movers help which I know that's where it could have came from no one else has been in my house, cps knows I do not use but at this point I am terrified.. I just need to know what could possibly happen next

You should have an attorney representing you. If you don't already have one, I recommend you contact the court and ask for one to be appointed for you. The concern from CPS about the roach on the floor would be the health hazard to the child if the child is young enough to pick things up and put in her mouth. The other concern would be what type of people are you bringing in your home. You may not be using, but are you hanging around other people who use (don't answer this on here--it is a rhetorical question)? If you have done everything, the next step would usually be to move to short unsupervised visit, then move to long unsupervised visits, then overnights. Then, hopefully, the court would return your daughter to you. If she is in foster care, that will mean a 90 day trial home visit. If she is in the custody of a relative or friend, DCS will likely want to continue to monitor once she is home. Best of luck!
