Product Description

Product Description

The MOLD ARMOR Do It Yourself Mold Test Kit will safely and easily test for the presence of inside or outside mold with results within 48 hours. This convenient home kit also serves as an air quality monitor and includes three testing methods: Indoor Air Quality Test Method, Air Conditioning & Heating Sample Method, and a Surface Sampling Testing Method when visible mold is present. This air quality test kit can also be used to detect unseen mold in the home. Each kit contains a petri dish, swab, and mold growth medium. This mold test kit also includes an option for mail-in lab analysis to determine the mold type. While the MOLD ARMOR Do It Yourself Test Kit can be an important part of assessing your family’s potential exposure to mold, many factors contribute to any test’s effectiveness. The mold test kit can only detect airborne or surface mold spores, depending on test method, that are present in the area during testing. If symptoms of mold exposure persist, consult a certified mold specialist. Follow directions carefully and keep out of reach of children.

It works.
This kit is super simple and obviously works. It’s around 80 for each Petri dish you send in to be tested. I didn’t send anything in yet so I can’t comment on that. I left the dish out in open air for an hour as directed, closed and taped it and let it incubate. Boom! Growth is there. Idk if it’s good or bad but it’s there and this kit works.
Thank you for your feedback

Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2024
After weeks of a chronic cough and congestion with me, difficulty breathing for my husband and our baby being congested with a rash, we decided to do an at home mold test of our rental. The results shocked us! We were not expecting this. We have no visible mold in our apartment. We did an open air test in our bedroom, a swab test of our bathroom, and an air test of our HVAC system. All of them came back positive! We’re going to be sending them into the lab to see what type of mold there exactly is, so I can’t review that process. The process to complete the test is extremely easy. Highly recommend getting if you think you might be living with mold.
