Sander Scott explains how surface mold testing works: visible growth gets swabbed, sent to a lab, cultured in a petri dish, and identified to genus level.

So we offer two different types of mold testing. One is called a surface mold. If you think back in high school biology or college, whatever you studied, you simply swab an area of growth that you visually see and then you have it taken to a laboratory, it's put in a petri dish and grown, and then they isolate and tell you the genus of that mold. That's one test.
