What do I test?
SEE INVISIBLE DANGERS: Detect the presence of bacteria, mold, and fungus that may linger even after cleaning—especially in high-touch or moisture-prone areas. Unlike many kits that offer a simple yes/no result, our test shows the amount of bacteria AND mold present—giving you a visual indicator of exposure risk.
Test for bacteria, mold, and fungus on surfacecs, applainces, drinking water, and more. Know species AND how bad the problem is, with semi-quantitative results.

Customer Reviews
I used this home inspection kit in our older home and was impressed with how easy and comprehensive it was. Each test came individually packaged with everything clearly labeled, and the instructions were easy to follow with QR codes that linked to instructional videos. As someone that was not familiar with these types of tests, this was very helpful making the whole process simple and stress-free. Being able to test for a number of potential household hazards on our own was very convenient and gave us peace of mind confirming a few things we had been curious about. For anyone that takes an active role in their home maintenance, whether it be an older or newer property, this is a fantastic and effective tool to have on hand. Highly recommended!
Really easy to use and super helpful!! I tested a few spots around my house and got clear results right away. The kit feels high quality and gave me peace of mind about mold and bacteria. Definitely worth having on hand for new home owners!
I received this kit and was immediately impressed with the packaging. This kit was very easy to use with all the items carefully wrapped and clearly labeled. The enclosed instructions are very easy to follow and the results are very clear. The materials provided were high quality. I will advise users to read the instructions thoroughly before starting each test for accurate results. Having well water I was very relieved to see the test indicated my filter worked very well. The test also revealed there was lead in the the paint of an antique shelf which we suspected. Great essential product for the home.
It was really easy to use and quick to get results. Loved the extra gloves included in the kit. I would recommend to anyone buying an older home or having concerns about the safety of their home or water.
Just what I needed for peace of mind after a home remediation project due to water damage and mold.
