Easy-to-Use, Affordable Mold Test Kit Identifies Toxic Mold in Your Home
Health Canada warns "Mold, carbon monoxide and radon are three of the most serious contaminants affecting indoor air - each of these can have serious impacts on our health."
Dear Homeowner,
If you can see mold in your home, most likely you want to get rid of it permanently, if for no other reason than its unsightly appearance. And there are other, more important reasons to get rid of mold. Reasons like causing costly damage to your home, and most importantly, adverse health effects to you and your family.
As you may already know, mold is not always so easy to get rid of. Wash it, and it'll probably come back. Bleach it, and it'll still come back. Because you haven't taken care of the source.
And trying to clean mold without proper protection can make you and your family sick because disturbing mold releases harmful spores into the air.
If you have visible mold in your home, please don't panic. Many of you already know there is a connection between household mold and health issues, but most of the time, mold is not toxic.
But wouldn't it be nice to know for sure?
Fortunately, we have the solution
In order to remove mold safely and permanently you need to:
- identify it
- remove it safely
- remove the conditions that led to its growth in the first place
Consulting a professional mold removal company can be very expensive, and sometimes unnecessary.
That's why we've developed a mold test kit specifically for homeowners. The mold test kit is a valuable, inexpensive first step in determining whether or not you have a serious mold problem in your home.
Our easy-to-use, affordable mold test kit will help you sample air and visible mold in your home.
Most of the time it's simple. If you can see the mold, just use the sterile swabs (included in the kit) to take a sample to send for analysis. But sometimes you can't see mold, yet you think there has to be mold somewhere because you can smell its musty odor. In that case, use the settle plates (included in the kit) to test the air in your home.
MBL's Mold Test Kit includes everything you need to take your samples safely:
- sterile swabs for visible mold testing
- settle plates for air testing
- latex gloves
- a mask
- full, easy to understand instructions on how to take the samples
- return labeled envelopes
Caution! Please do not disturb any type of mold growth without proper protection, not even to swab for the mold test kit. Disturbing mold releases spores into the air, which can make you sick.
We'll analyze your mold sample in our lab and send you a lab report to tell you:
- exactly what type of mold your sample is
- whether your sample is a toxic mold or just a cosmetic problem
- if there are any known health problems associated with that mold and what they are
- how to safely remove it
- how to make sure it never comes back.
And then you'll know whether the mold in your house is toxic or not.
Mold causes costly damage and decreases the value of your home
Besides an unsightly appearance, mold left unchecked can cause thousands of dollars in property damage.
How? Unchecked mold uses organic material such as wood and drywall as its food source, and it will simply continue to spread as long as it has optimum growing conditions.
Check out the damage to this home's basement walls in the photo to the left.
Caution! If you have a large amount of mold (more than 10 square meters), you may need to call a professional.
Most importantly, mold can be a serious risk to your health
Molds produce allergens, irritants and toxins that can cause you to have reactions depending on how much you're exposed to, your age, and your sensitivities or allergies. So you can have a reaction, while others may not.
Mold may play a major role in "sick building syndrome" and related symptoms.
If you or your family are experiencing any of these symptoms, you might consider investigating for mold:
- runny nose, sneezing, nasal congestion, watery eyes
- skin rash or itching
- flu-like symptoms
- asthma attacks
- constant headaches
- memory problems
- mood changes
- aches and pains
- possible fever
- and rarely, pneumonia.
The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that 50 to 100 common indoor mold types have the potential to create health problems. But there are molds that can have more serious health effects.
Fortunately there are only a very few of these types of toxic molds.
