Amazon.com Product Description
Molds are microscopic fungi that exist almost everywhere. Molds feed off of organic materials and facilitate the decomposition of these materials for use by other plants and animals. To thrive, mold requires only moisture and a food source. Mold can enter your building through open doorways, leaks, the HVAC system, or even clothes. Once mold is in the building and finds a suitable food source, all that is required for a mold colony to start is moisture, typically found in humid spaces like basements and bathrooms The MT1 mold test kit tests for mold spores than can cause allergies and health problems such as: - Respiratory problems (wheezing, shortness of breath)
- Nasal and sinus congestion
- Eye, nose, and throat irritation
- Dry, hacking cough
- Skin rashes or irritation
Mold growth can also cause damage to furnishings and structural damage to your home. The Mold Test Kit is easy to use and can test up to nine different locations. Lab analysis for each bulk sample costs $10. Preprinted envelopes are included to ship your samples to Cardinal Laboratories in Beaumont, TX. You will receive your results in five to seven days. Kit has a five year limited warranty.--Bree NorlanderWhat's in the Box

 Easy to use February 5, 2008

This test kit was very easy to use. This is a good test kit to buy if you have visible mold growing and you want to know what type it is. If you want to know if there are hidden mold sources that are in the air, this is not the test kit to use. I gave this product four stars because I am not able to detect mold growing in unseen places, such as heating ducts.
