Discover the Benefits of MouldMonitor

At MouldMonitor, we use advanced DNA sequencing to identify every mould species present in your sample, not just the ones you can see. For example, there are more than fifty species commonly referred to as “black mould,” and while many are harmless, others are known health hazards. By analysing mould at the DNA level, we deliver fast, accurate results that help homeowners and professionals understand what’s really in their property.

MouldMonitor is an information and testing service, designed to give you clear, reliable data about the moulds present in your environment. While we don’t provide remediation advice or treatment recommendations, our results give you the evidence you need to decide on next steps with confidence, whether that’s monitoring the situation, seeking professional advice, or taking targeted action.

Frequently Asked Questions

Getting started with MouldMonitor is simple. You purchase a swabbing kit, activate it online, then take a quick swab from the mould-affected area of your property. Once you send the swab back to our laboratory, we analyse it using advanced DNA sequencing to identify all mould species present. You’ll receive a clear, easy-to-understand report showing exactly what’s been detected. While MouldMonitor doesn’t provide remediation advice or recommendations, the results give you highly accurate data about what you’re dealing with so any next steps are informed by facts, not assumptions. For those who want to dive deeper, you can learn more about the science behind our testing here.

MouldMonitor goes beyond visual checks and basic culture tests by using DNA-based identification to tell you exactly which mould species are present – quickly, accurately and without guesswork. Our approach is grounded in environmental DNA testing used by professionals worldwide, yet designed to be simple and accessible for homes and trades alike. Whether you’re a homeowner seeking clarity or a professional needing reliable evidence, MouldMonitor gives you clear, unbiased information you can trust so decisions are based on facts, not fear.

Visual inspections and traditional culture-based tests can only tell part of the story. Many mould species look similar to the naked eye, and culture tests often detect only the moulds that grow well in laboratory conditions — meaning some species may be missed entirely. A DNA-based mould test identifies mould directly from its genetic material, allowing precise species-level identification regardless of whether the mould is visible, or easy to culture.

By using DNA sequencing, MouldMonitor provides a comprehensive and unbiased picture of the moulds present in your environment. This approach removes guesswork and assumptions, giving you accurate, factual data about what you’re dealing with. The clarity of DNA-level results allows homeowners and professionals alike to make informed decisions based on reliable evidence rather than incomplete or misleading indicators.

MouldMonitor Professional is tailored for mould testing professionals and businesses. Our Professional test is reported as a laboratory test certificate, which you can then give to your clients or retain for your records.
