Mold control - both for prevention of mold growth and mold removal - is often a do-it-yourself job. I have worked close to 15 years bringing a microscope to houses and other buildings and have learned where mold grows, how it grows, what least-toxic product works best to remove it, and what least-toxic product works best to keep it from coming back. I trust that you will find the information at this website as empowering as many of my inspection clients have found it.

On-Site Microscope

I am May Dooley, the author of this site, the host of  the radio program, Create Your Healthy Home, and columnist for Our Toxic Times, a newsletter for the chemically injured.

I am also an experienced mold inspector who is ready to help you with your mold and other environmental concerns. Based in Pennsylvania but with a location on Long Island, I  do mold inspections in Connecticut, Maryland, New Jersey,  New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington DC and other areas by arrangement.

I realized early on that bringing a microscope to clients' homes gave me a great advantage in finding mold. I was no longer locked into laboratory fees and so could take as many samples as needed to find sources of mold.

Sampling consists of touching clear sticky tape to a suspect surface and then observing the tape under a microscope for the presence or absence of mold. Many air samples are also taken, in order to study patterns of mold dissemination and to  better zero in on sources.

There are only about a half dozen types of mold commonly found in the average home. These types are fairly straightforward to recognize under the microscope. I show my clients what I'm seeing, as well as provide reference material. Laboratory confirmation is available upon request.

My several hundred-page manual, Mold Control on a Budget,  has much more information of the type found at this website, It is due out in September or October, 2007. Please email me  to be informed of the publication date.

I also can investigate other environmental concerns besides mold, such as gas leaks, carbon monoxide, lead paint, full spectrum electromagnetic fields, water quality issues, vacuum cleaner effectiveness, and a review of household products.
