Mold testing
Mold, read through a scientist.
Spores, mycotoxins, water-damaged building material. Sample once, read what the lab finds, decide what to do next.
What we look for
The full panel.
-
Whole-home dust DNA panel
Dust-based qPCR screen for 36 mold species, scored against a national index. Collect with the included Swiffer cloth, or choose a vacuum dust cassette.
-
Air cassette
Spore-trap impaction sampling for total spore count and identification by type.
-
Surface swab / tape lift
Direct sampling of visible growth or suspect surfaces for species ID.
-
Mycotoxin urine panel
Occupant-side test for select mycotoxin metabolites. Optional add-on; doctor's order may be required by state.
How it works
From kit to report.
-
01 · Pick the sample type
Whole-home dust for the full picture, cassettes for room air, swabs for visible growth. The recommendation strip on the product page walks through which fits which question.
-
02 · Collect and ship
Kit ships with guided instructions and a return mailer. Collection takes 10–30 minutes depending on type. Drop the sealed kit at any post office.
-
03 · Reviewed and reported
Lab returns raw data. The result is read through the BioDwell Scientific Review and returned as a written report with what to do next.
A mold result without context is a list of numbers. The point of reviewing it is to translate counts and species into a sentence: this is what's likely happening in your home, and this is what to do about it.
Who this is for
Best fit when…
- Households noticing persistent musty smells or symptoms in a specific room
- Property owners post-leak who want a baseline before remediation
- Buyers and sellers running a pre-purchase or pre-listing screen
