Mold Sample Collection Kit (MTK-01) with Mold Booklet, 4 Petri Dishes, Culture Gel

Do-it-yourself mold sampling kit. Designed for collecting mold samples only. No laboratory analysis, processing, or interpretation is included or offered. This kit is strictly for sample collection purposes.

Includes:

• 4 non-toxic sampling plates with lids.
• Non-toxic culture gel.
• "A Guide to Mold and Mold Contamination" booklet.
• Instructions.

Instructions (Sampling Only):

1. Carefully remove the 4 pre-treated plates from the box and place them on a level surface. Save the box for storage.

2. Add one teaspoon of the provided culture gel to each plate. Let it harden for 45–60 minutes.

3. Place one plate outdoors in a protected area (control sample). Place the remaining plates indoors in different rooms of concern.

4. For a visible mold area, use a clean cotton swab to collect a sample and transfer it into the gel of one plate.

5. For air sampling, remove the lids from the plates and leave them open for 1 hour, then replace lids and label each plate with its location.

6. Store covered plates in a dark, warm place for 48–96 hours and observe for mold growth.

Note: This kit is for collecting and observing samples only. If you wish to have samples analyzed, you must independently locate a laboratory of your choice. We do not provide or recommend analysis services.
