Here Are Your Next Steps…

How to Collect Samples Using Regular Household Tape:

  • Click sample Submittal form and print our easy-to-use instructions (if you cannot print, provide the information required on a blank sheet of paper).
  • Wear some gloves (if necessary).
  • Cut approximately 2-3 inches of clear scotch tape.
  • Hold tape at one end and place sticky side down onto the surface with visible mold growth and press gently.
  • Remove tape and stick it without folding onto a plastic bag (e.g.,ziplock bag).
  • Number each tape and identify the locations sampled. For example:
    • Tape 1: Basement, east wall.
    • Tape 2: Windowsill, master bedroom.
    • Tape 3: Ceiling tile, kitchen.
  • Enclose samples in an envelope or bag.

(NOTE: More than one type of mold may be present. If several sites show visible mold growth (with different discolorations), it is advisable to take more than one sample.)
