DRUGS, guns and about $100,000 have been seized by police after a crackdown on Outlaw Motor Cycle Gangs.

Task Force Hydra closed down an alleged methylamphetamine supply network Thursday morning after they executed search warrants on addresses in southeast Queensland, including two OMCG clubhouses.

More than 24 warrants were carried out at homes and businesses as part of the police crackdown on people with links to the Bandidos and Lone Wolf motor cycle gangs, who are allegedly involved in the supply and production of illicit substances.

The warrants were executed this morning in Pine Rivers, Caboolture, Burpengary, Sunshine Coast, Brendale and Hervey Bay and led to the discovery of the drugs, money and fifteen guns.

Three houses on Buckingham St, Strathpine, were targeted about 5am Thursday.

Neighbors described hearing a "thud, thud, thud" and then seeing drug dogs and "police jumping fences".

"It's generally a quiet street," a Neighbour said.

"But there are always people coming and going from those houses."

Acting Detective Superintendent Garry Watts, of the Organised Crime Group, said the operation, known as Juliet Mission, will reduce the impact of these types of drugs in Queensland.
