We all have walked into a basement or bathroom and smelt that distinct musty odor. That may be mold, and it may be irritating your sinuses or making your allergies worse. Mold is excellent in your compost pile, but you don't want the spores in your home. Air testing kits are widely available but differ significantly in quality and can be confusing to use. All tests done at BioClean are sent out to a 3rd party lab to ensure that the results are legitimate. And we're happy to answer any questions you may have regarding an air quality test.

Most people only concentrate on the danger of black mold, but any mold can be dangerous in high enough concentrations. Though anyone's respiratory system may be irritated by mold spores, the risk increases exponentially for anyone with allergies, compromised immune systems, or respiratory disorders.
