According to the Center for Disease Control, Stachybotrys chartarum, also known as black mold, grows in areas prone to moisture or that have experienced water damage, leaks, or flooding, most often on fiberboard, gypsum board, and paper. Black mold requires constant moisture to grow, meaning the best way to prevent Stachybotrys chartarum is by preventing moisture from accumulating in walls, basements, and crawlspaces. While black mold has not been proven to specifically cause illness, it and other molds worsen respiratory symptoms from existing conditions and the CDC recommends immediate removal.
Mold Testing Guidance
Understanding the types and quantities of mold samples taken from your building is crucial for effectively addressing your concerns about mold. Below, we outline our approach to mold sampling and provide insights into our methodologies, helping you make informed decisions regarding mold activity in your building.
Mold Sampling Methods & Approaches
Mold Growth
Mold spores function similarly to seeds; under favorable conditions such as elevated humidity and damp environments, mold spores can proliferate. This cycle continues as mold produces and releases spores back into the environment.
Air Sampling for Mold Spores
Determining indoor mold activity involves comparing the types and quantities of mold spores in indoor air with those in outdoor air. This comparison helps ascertain whether spores are originating from within or just entering through openings like doors and windows. Our testing involves drawing air through a micro-slide cartridge, capturing spores for analysis.
Air Sampling Approaches
- Ground Zero Testing: Always test in areas showing visual signs of growth or where odors are strongest.
- Cross-contamination Testing: It’s wise to also test areas beyond the immediate vicinity of visible mold, such as upper levels of a home, to detect possible spore travel through air systems.
- Health Concern Testing: If health symptoms are a concern, consider testing frequent living spaces of the affected individuals.
Surface and Dust Sampling for Mold
Surface Sampling
Surface sampling can confirm whether a suspect substance is mold. We use a cotton swab to collect samples from surfaces for laboratory analysis, which can reveal the presence of mold spores, hyphae, and fruiting structures.
Dust Sampling
Dust sampling from carpets, padding, or accumulated dust on surfaces can provide a historical perspective on mold conditions within a building. This analysis is particularly useful in environments with no visible mold but potential for hidden growth.
