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 Norlander

This tells you if after a leak if you might have mold. And need to clean and repair. Love this
Perhaps these results, mailed in to a lab, are more precise. But I just wanted to know whether I have mold or not. Quick, dirty, and cheap would suffice. I don't want to pay an additional fee and wait days to weeks for results. I needed faster, general answer.
I didn't open the bag, I'm sending it back.
I feel stupid and duped that I had to go back to re-read the vendor's description to realize what I got.

The kit didn't test for air borne spores and it didn't require a base line sample which is odd.
I am still waiting on results to make final decision as to value of kit.
