Do I need to unistall any apps to completely remove them from my mac? Will simply dragging them to the trash can remove everything from that app? If I delete an app from my mac by simply moving the app to the trash can, will that effectively remove all files and data from that app including any malware? Or does the app need to be unistalled?

No it doesn't.

Use a third party app, I use Advanced Uninstall manager, its free and In the App Store and will do the job.

Good luck
