Why should I do
Entire Home Testing?
Mold testing should involve
testing your entire home, condo, apartment
office, retail store, or other types of buildings for toxic mold, black
mold or any type of mold growth. Any
mold in elevated levels indoors can cause health harm according to the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Taking test samples from all
different areas of your home or building with visible or possible hidden
mold growth will ensure that you get more reliable results than testing a
single or a few area.
This means that
you will use a number of test kits to test all of the different areas of
your home or building, but then you only pay for mold lab analysis of the
mold test kits showing the largest number and/or diversity of mold
growths.
For only
US$99, you can buy ten
(10) home mold test kits [with three year shelf life]
with free UPS ground delivery.
Read the
following test kit information and home test kit directions and test
instructions below or print out your copy of the
Test Kit
Instructions.
You can watch the molds grow over a 7 day time period and do your own
self-observation and
mold growth analysis, or you can send the mold test kits at any time
[including after 7 days of self-observation] for professional mold
analysis by our
mold laboratory for only $49 per mold sample analyzed.

How To Test for Mold with our
Do-It-Yourself Kits
Your first and most affordable mold investigative step to learn the
severity and the extent of the possible mold infestation is to use our do
it yourself mold test kits [self observation of results over a 5 to 7 day
time period, or send in for
mold lab analysis] to mold test the air of each room, attic, basement,
crawl space, and the outward air flow from each heating/cooling duct
register for the possible presence of elevated levels of airborne mold
spores, in comparison to an outdoor mold control test which you should
also do. If you see any visible mold growth, from each moldy area, scrape
some of the mold particles into a separate mold test kit per testing
location for observation over a 5 to 7 day time period, and/or for mold
lab analysis. When scraping mold into a test kit, you would be wise to use
a breathing air respirator [Home Depot or Lowe’s or a safety store] so
that you don’t breathe in extra mold spores that you put into the air by
scraping some mold-like substances into each mold test kit.
Our test kits come with detailed use
instructions to make your tests informative and helpful in mold
problem diagnosis. Learn how to do your own, self-observation analysis of
mold test kits results at
Mold-Test-Kit-Interpretation. You can also read online our copyrighted
form “Self-Analysis
& Interpretation of Visible Mold Growth in Do-It-Yourself Mold Test kits.”
HOT TIP:
You can record and analyze your visual observations about
mold test kit growths in a well-organized and meaningful way by utilizing
the form "Self-Analysis
of Visible Mold Growth in Do-It-BEST-Yourself Mold Test Kits."
For self-observation instructions, please read
do-it-yourself mold analysis and interpretation.
Follow the
four (4) easy steps below:
Step 1.
Avoid the biggest mold
testing mistake!
The biggest possible
mold testing mistake by a property owner, manager, or occupant
is to test only one or just a few indoor locations for
mold infestation in the home, condominium, apartment, office or commercial
property.
"Don't leave a stone
unturned." Test your entire home for possible mold growth and
infestation. Locate the likely mold hotspots in your home, office or
building. Entire Home Testing Kits allows you to check your entire home
for mold contamination at an affordable price. Utilize, at least, ten to
twenty mold test kits to test for mold growth in the following suggested
test areas:
(1) Use our test kits
to test every room [including the attic, basement, and crawl space]
of your home, condominium, apartment, office, or commercial property
for the possible presence of elevated levels of airborne mold spores,
which, if present, indicate a likely mold infestation problem.
(2) Use our test kits
to test the air flow coming out of the heating/ventilating/air
conditioning [hvac] duct registers when you run the hvac equipment for
the possible presence of elevated levels of airborne mold spores. Test
at least two duct registers in different areas of your home or
building.
(3) Use our test kits
to test the visible mold growth locations anywhere inside your home,
office or property. Collect a test sample from each separate infestation
or growth location. [Please note that you can also use Scotch tape to
collect test samples of visible mold---visit
Lift Tape Sampling].
(4) Outdoor control
test [air test sample taken five feet beyond the drip edge of your
roof], which you can compare test results with your indoor test samples.
Step 2.
Buy
one or more Entire Home Testing packages
[with 10 ready to use with no mixing or hardening required kits per
package] for
US$99
per home test kit
package and free UPS ground delivery!

Step
3.
Use
our home test kit to collect air samples
[plus test samples of
visible mildew growth],
and then observe the growth of mildew
[if fungi spores are
present]
in each test kit for at least 5 to 7 days yourself.
[Alternatively,
if you want professional mold laboratory identification services for
ALL of your home test kit samples, please proceed to Step 4 below.]
5 to 7 days [or
more] after you have done an air or visible mildew sampling, here’s how to
interpret the visual results apparent in your home test kits:
(1) If you observe
and count a greater number of fungi colonies of any one particular fungi
colony type [possessing the same or similar color, shape, and/or
structural pattern] growing in ONE testing kit than you observe and
count in the outdoor control testing kit, then you can reasonably conclude
that there is a possible indoor-generated mold infestation in the area
location in which you conducted that particular testing.
(2) If you
observe a particular mildew colony type growing in ONE home test kit that
is NOT present in the outdoor control home test kit, then you can
reasonably conclude that there is a possible indoor-generated infestation
in the area location in which you conducted that particular testing.
(3) If you
observe three or more of the SAME mold colony type growing in ONE home
test kit, then you can reasonably conclude that there is a possible mold
infestation in the area location in which you conducted that particular
test, regardless of outdoor control test.
Think about this rat
analogy: if there are only three rats living INSIDE a particular area of
your home, is there no indoor rat problem if more than three rats are
living immediately OUTSIDE of your home?
You live or work in your
home or building many hours per day. Your continual inhaling of mold
spores into your sinus areas or into your lungs can initiate dangerous
fungi growth inside your body! You can become very ill from
continued, CUMULATIVE exposure to, and continued, regular, and cumulative
inhalation of, even modest numbers of mold spores.
(4) If you
observe three or more of the same mildew colony types in each of
several or many home test kits taken from different areas of your home or
building, you can reasonably conclude that that particular mildew species
is possibly widespread in its contamination of your home or building.
The most dangerous mold
species to you and other home or building occupants are the molds that are
present in many areas of your home or building, causing continued and
cumulative exposure and mold inhalation.
Step 4.
If you
detect a mold problem after completing Step 3 above, or if you want to
proceed directly to professional mold laboratory analysis, then you
have the following options
[do one or all]
---
(1) Send one or more
of your test kit samples [especially the ones with the most visible mold
growth] for professional analysis, identification, and a written
report by
Mold Inspector Laboratory International, Ltd.
Expert mold analysis
report is especially important if you are:
(a) considering
the purchase or sale of a house or other real estate;
(b) making or
defending a mold liability claim in regards to the rental of [or the
already-completed sale or purchase of] a house, condo, apartment or other
real estate building; or;
(c) making or
defending a claim regarding mold problems in the work place or a public
building such as a school, hospital, nursing home, or government office.
If you so desire, you can pre-pay your mold laboratory mold identification
services when you purchase your mold test kits.
Please visit:

(2)
Alternatively, don’t worry about mold identification because the
remediation procedures that you or a
Certified
Mold Remediator must do to kill and remove mold are
the same regardless of the type of fungi. Consider using your limited
financial resources to do effective removal in accordance with the precise
remediation directions provided in our book
Do-It-BEST-Yourself Mold Prevention, Inspection, Testing and Remediation.
(3) Do follow
up, intensive, and detailed inspection and testing of your home or other
building to find and fix:
(a) water
problems that are causing the mildew problem [such as high humidity above
60%], roof leaks, plumbing leaks, and water intrusion into your hvac
equipment and ducts, and;
(b) mildew
growth, especially fungi hidden INSIDE walls, ceilings, floors, attic,
crawl space, and hvac equipment and ducts. You can do this thorough,
follow up inspection and testing either with the help of one of our
Certified
Mold Inspectors, or by Do-It-BEST-Yourself inspection
and testing using the very precise directions in our book
Do-It-BEST-Yourself Mold Prevention, Inspection, Testing & Remediation.
