Small amounts were still found during this week's searches.
One search yielded 152 cannabis tinnies, foil-wrapped ready for the Christmas market.
Some of those arrested have already appeared in court, and more are expected to front judges over the next few days.
As well as methamphetamine and cannabis, police found a range of property allegedly stolen in residential burglaries, including TVs, computers and jewellery, and clothing alleged to have come from shoplifting.
Some quantities of cash suspected of being proceeds from crime were also seized.
Mr Foster said burglaries were inextricably linked to illicit drugs, and were invariably committed to fund drug purchases or cover debts.
"We have targeted these people specifically in an effort to reduce burglaries throughout the district," he said.
But the operation also acted as a reminder to people of security issues, to ensure they don't become victims, particularly over the traditional December-January holiday period. Police want the public to recognise the signs of illegal activity, and know how to report it.
The Crimestoppers phone line is proving invaluable for police as more people are providing information, especially around drugs and drug dealing.
The public was being encouraged to use the service - it's anonymity was a huge drawcard for people who would not otherwise talk.
