Mold Test Kit for Home - 12 Simple Detection Tests,Test HVAC System,Home Surfaces,& Indoor Air Quality Testing Kits,DIY Mold Detector at Home,Includes Detailed Mold Identification Guide,air Tester

This test kit came exactly as packaged with easy to follow instructions. It includes enough materials for you to test twice. Once beforehand and once after you clean to remove any mold. I did the initial test, waited about a week for things to grow, and then checked my cultures. Once I had something growing, I took pictures and emailed it to the included email address for identification. Someone got back to me within 1 day with an analysis of my pictures. So, there is a quick turnaround for mold analysis. I would definitely buy again. The value you get for the money spent is excellent, in my opinion.

The product and service are excellent. Included is a booklet with clear instructions on how to use it. The steps on how to use it at your home are clear and well done. Then they provide pictures of what to look for and how to mitigate and clean should mold be found. The booklet is well written, pictures are in color, and recommendations make it easy to know how to treat it. Should you have questions on how to interpret the images, send them your pictures. Within 24 hours, they sent us a detailed analysis of all of our pictures in a well made report. I can't say enough nice things about this company. If you are concerned about mold, buy this product. It will give you piece of mind or at least a way to clear up the mold.

Instructions were easy to follow and product worked as described. We did swabs on surfaces and also air samples. Most of our air sample were good (may be because e have good HVAC air filters and air purifiers in our home. BU, most of the swabs of counters and bathrooms came back with quite a bit of mold growth. Not severe compared to a test sample we did of the outside but enough to work on addressing the problem and cleaning surfaces better. The lab was very quick to reply (next day) with their identification and assessment of the photos we sent of the mold cultures. Great customer service.

This product is amazing. The directions are clear and easy to perform. A booklet is included to help identify the different mold spores. I was uncertain if I was accurately identifying a couple so I emailed the company with pictures of my results fromnthe test.They returned my email the next day with the identification of each sample, potential health issues they can cause, and how to effectively kill and get rid of the mold spores...... all for free!!!!If you are suspicious of mold in your home, I highly recommend this test kit. I would give it 1000 stars if I could!!!

I purchased this DIY mold test kit, and not only was the kit itself excellent—complete with clear instructions and a helpful guide—but the seller went above and beyond with personalized service. After conducting my tests, I reached out for assistance in identifying the types of mold present in my samples, and the seller responded incredibly quickly with detailed, knowledgeable insights. A mold analysis report was emailed back to me from Wendy and it was very detailed of each picture I sent in.This level of support is rare and truly invaluable, especially when dealing with something as serious as indoor air quality. If you’re looking for an effective mold testing solution with exceptional customer service, I highly recommend this product and seller!

Everyone should do this! We were having some respiratory complaints but there was no visible mold anywhere in our house. The kit came with everything needed to perform the sampling. I was unsure of the types of mold growing and reached out to the mold lab. They identified the mold and sent a very detailed report with steps to eliminate and prevent future mold recurrence. I highly recommend this product! It will give you peace of mind for very little cost.

Very easy to use and plenty of dishes to collect material for testing in different areas. Results came in quickly saving me a lot of potential headaches. Thank you.

The instructions are reasonable, but there are some things I want to EMPHASIZE.Once you are growing your mold cultures, PROTECT YOURSELF, when handling the sample dishes/plates. The instructions say to do so, but in a generic way. I didn't pay enough attention.The instructions say, after collecting/exposing the samples, to "seal" the lids onto the plates (agar sample dishes) "to prevent accidental opening". I thought the "accidental opening" was the important part, a didn't fully appreciate the "seal" part. I just put on two short pieces of tape, one on each side. The lid was not SEALED to be sample dish/plate.The instructions say to incubate the samples in a dark, warm place. I just put them back in the box. But I took them out of the box, 3 different times, to see how they were developing, The first two times, I didn't wear a respirator-or-N95 mask. I think I should have. I quickly stared to have allergic reactions. I think I exposed my self to several samples of proliferating, virulent molds, the second time being worse than the first.I decided that spores could be getting out of the covered BUT NOT SEALED plates, when I was checking the samples. I went back, this 3rd time wearing an N-95 mask, and put a piece of tape, all around the entire edge, sealing the lid to the base. I continued the incubation.There are sample photos in the instruction book to help identify what ever might be growling. I didn't find them to be particularly helpful. None of them looked like what I had, in general. And, specifically, several of mine had colors - all the sample photos were gray.BUT, they offer to analyze any photos you e-mail to them. I did. They did. I had a little trouble taking clear photos with my cell phone. I ended up taking the covers off the plates, to get clearer photos. I wore an N-95 mask. I hope that was enough, to avoid yet another exposure.I emailed 4 photos, with a collection of about 14 different mold samples growing. They wrote back, IN ONE DAY, identifying 5 specific molds, and 1 additional mold family. Several of these 6 were not even in the booklet. Kudos for the identification service.I've had mold sensitivities for decades. In this case, I was testing a rental property my brother owns, to see if I might safely buy it from him, to live in. Nope. No way. Not at all.This kit saved me from making a mistake that could have had serious health consequences for me - exacerbating the problems I'm already experiencing. Even if the identifications are less that 100% accurate (I have absolutely no reason to doubt the accuracy, at all), the fact that so many molds grew on the plates is really all I needed to know. But I like details and specifics.Read and follow the INSTURCTION about how to DISPOSE of the plates. SERIOUSLY. You need to kill the molds before disposal. Don't just toss them. No one else need you to share your nasty molds with them.The kit came with 12 sample plates, 2 bags of 6 plates each. I used 6. The instruction say once you open a bag to use the plates in 2 to 4 weeks. I'm assuming the unopened bag has a long shelf life, and I can collect another 6 samples, somewhere, sometime.UpdateI have now used the second bag of 6 plates. The first bag has a single shrink wrap around the set of 6 plates, but, each plate was individually taped shut. The second bag had 3 shrink wraps, but the individual plates were not taped shut. For the first set, I had to cut open the individual plates at time of use. Meh, no big deal. But the second set more-or-less forces me to use all 6 at one time., since I am sure the lids are not air tight, and contamination could get into those plates. The instructions give instructions for short-term storage of unused plate, once you open a bag of 6. Not sure if that applies to taped or un-taped plates.I vote for taped plates. Seems less likely to get contamination and therefor bad readings.End Update.I am VERY pleased with this product. It did exactly what I needed.Be sure to PROTECT YOURSELF from growing samples.
