Tap Test Fabrics For Enhanced Peace Of Mind
You can spend a small fortune removing mold contaminated materials from hidden places in your home and still have a problem. Or, you might suspect a mold problem and have trouble finding its source for cleanup. When this is the case, a Tap Test could be in order. Unlike other mold test products that zero in on air quality or hard surfaces, this specialized test enables you to check textiles that are not suitable for machine washing.
A Tap Test for mold should be performed when you are concerned about a particular piece of furniture, rug, car seat, pillow, sofa, stuffed animals, clothing or any other textile that just won’t wash easily. Mold contamination can easily occur on these surfaces and lead to breathing conditions, allergy flare-ups and other concerns. Rather than throw out all materials suspected of contamination, it can make a great deal of sense to test for mold first.
Why should you test for mold?
Although mold is naturally found in all environments, it can be particularly troublesome within enclosed areas. When homes or offices are contaminated with mold, the environment can become toxic to humans. This is especially so when black mold is present. Unfortunately, mold is not always visible. Even when it is easy to detect visibly, a mold test kit is still important to determine what type of mold is present and in what relative quantity.
At ImmunoLytics, we are one of America’s leading mycology laboratories. Our services are used by hospitals, physicians and environmental professionals across the country. We also provide our mold test kits and analysis assistance to homeowners and individuals with concerns about contamination.
The Tap Test is just one of our product offerings. We also provide homeowners with full mold test kits to confirm or deny the presence of mold within rooms. These tests also provide information about mold type, relative quantity and more. Full mold detector kits come with all of the sampling supplies free of charge, a complete analysis, a full-color report and a conference call with an environmental/pharmacy professional.
While it might not be technically necessary to provide our customers with an over the-phone consultation, at ImmunoLytics we believe it is. During the consultation, our professional staff will go over results with clients and help them understand what the outcome of a mold test means. They can also provide customers with access to a large network of professionals who can assist them further if remediation is recommended.
When you rely on ImmunoLytics to answer questions about mold in your environment, you can count on professional handling of your test samples, analysis and delivery of results. It is our mission to help our customers understand what they are dealing with so they can take necessary steps to create a healthier, safer environment for themselves, their families or even their employees.
