“ Damp ceilings and walls are home to a mould that poses serious
health risks …Toxic Mould is estimated to affect well over 3 million
homes in the UK “ Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors 2002 Toxic Mould Risk
All moulds have the potential to cause health problems and
allergenic reactions can include eye, nose and throat irritation,
coughs and breathing difficulties.
However two species – Stachybotrys chartarum and Aspergillus
fumigatum – are more dangerous because they produce mycotoxins which
can lead to similar but more exaggerated health effects as well as
nausea, headaches, rashes and lung infections.

rapid DNA-based identification service for surveyors, FM and
property management companies, landlords and the private homeowner.
