TESTING:
Testing Options to Find IF and WHERE there is a mold problem

(87)
An effective DIY mold detection kit that includes everything you need to test for elevated levels of mold in your indoor air or on belongings. It takes minutes to test, and you can use the insert to read your results in just 5 days.
This test is designed to look for the presence and relative abundance of 12 of the most toxigenic molds and for 16 of the most poisonous mycotoxins. This test provides a diagnostic of not only which molds you are being exposed to, reported in fungal elements/ml instead of spores/ml, but also measures the degree to which you are being exposed.
Indoor Environmental Professional
Assessors perform onsite assessments of properties, suggest and interpret tests, can oversee remediation efforts, and provide real world advice to maintain the “health” of your home. Always hire a licensed professional. Look for ACAC candidates with CIEC and CMC certifications.
CLEANING:
Mold Remediation and Deep Cleaning (Avoid toxic chemicals)

While not a replacement for professional mold remediation, fogging can temporarily provide a safe environment for those affected by mold and mycotoxins. Fogging is also beneficial for routine cleaning and maintenance for mold-sensitized individuals. Regular fogging can have a dramatic impact on indoor air quality.
Professional or DIY Remediation
Depending on the extent of the mold problem, DIY cleaning may not be option. Remediators perform the physical removal of contaminants and affected building materials following a step-by-step protocol (often created by an assessor). Proper containment and engineering measures are used to help control their work area and minimize cross-contamination concerns.
