Home Allergen Testing – Check Dust Mites, Pets, Mold & More
Test Your Home for Hidden Allergens
Why Test Your Home?
Indoor allergens—like dust mites, pet dander, cockroaches, mold, and rodent proteins—can trigger asthma, eczema, rhinitis, and persistent congestion.
Even if symptoms are mild, knowing what’s in your home lets you and your doctor take targeted action to reduce exposure and improve your health.
Information about home exposure can complement results of the allergy test and help to link sensitisation with exposure data.
How It Works: Practical and Reliable Testing
1. Collect Dust Samples Easily using an attachment sent to you by the lab.
Use a simple dust collection device that fits onto your vacuum cleaner. It captures two-minute samples from mattresses, carpets, or upholstery—no dust handling required.
2. Post the attachment back to the laboratory. You will need to arrange postage yourself as well as print and include the laboratory form that will be emailed to you.
3. Comprehensive Lab Analysis
For a broader view, send your dust samples to a qualified lab. There, a multiplex immunoassay examines multiple allergens (dust mites, cat, dog, rodent, cockroach, mold, and pollen) in one go.
- Ultra-sensitive and accurate: Detects allergen levels far below what older methods could measure, with results within a week .
What You’ll Get
- Level indicators for eight of the most common indoor allergens
- Clear categorisation: Low, medium, or high exposure relative to guidelines for asthma and allergy risk
- Action recommendations: Helps you understand what steps to take next
Typical Allergen Thresholds
| Allergen | Low Risk | Sensitisation Risk | High Risk |
| Dust mites (Mite Group 1) | <2 µg/g | 2–10 µg/g | >10 µg/g |
| Cat/dog | <0.2 µg/g | 0.2–8 µg/g | >8 µg/g |
| Cockroach | <0.2 µg/g | 0.2–1 µg/g | >1 µg/g |
| These thresholds help you interpret results and guide remediation . |
Quick Turnaround
- Full lab report: 10-15 days after sample arriva
What You Can Do With the Results
- Target cleaning efforts: e.g. mattress covers, HEPA vacuums
- Environmental control tips: washing bedding weekly, reducing humidity, removing mold-prone items
- Make an appointment with an allergy consultant and discuss your symptoms and allergy testing approach.
