FAQs

Hiring a mold detection dog offers a precise and efficient way to identify mold in your home or business. Our trained mold dogs can detect mold hidden behind walls, under floors, and in other hard-to-reach areas, finding mold that would normally go unnoticed. This non-invasive method is faster and less disruptive than traditional mold detection techniques, saving you money, time and the hassle. By using a mold dog, you get a thorough inspection that helps protect your property and health, providing peace of mind and a healthier environment.

Our K9 teams are trained to proven industry standards, with a strong focus on accuracy, consistency, and reliable results. Before searching client homes solo, every dog and handler is certified by an independent third party, the American Working Dog Association (AWDA), ensuring our work is evaluated without bias. We’re proud to be the first mold detection K9 team in Utah to earn this industry-recognized certification. Third-party testing removes conflicts of interest and gives our clients verified confidence in our results. Since certification, our mold dogs continue regular training to maintain peak performance and stay at the top of the industry.

While our service may have a higher upfront cost, it can save you thousands in the long run. Traditional mold testing usually costs a few hundred dollars per test and can miss hidden problem areas, often leading to repeated and costly remediation. By using a mold dog to pinpoint hidden mold throughout your home, you reduce the risk of these repeated cycles. Targeting only the affected areas also helps lower the overall cost of remediation.

Yes! Dogs' noses are so powerful that they can detect what cannot be seen by the naked eye. Their olfactory system is highly advanced, making their sense of smell incredibly powerful. With around 300 million olfactory receptors—compared to 6 million in humans—dogs can detect and differentiate a vast range of odors at concentrations up to 100 million times lower than humans. Their remarkable olfactory abilities make them invaluable in roles like search and rescue, detection of drugs/explosives, medical diagnosis, and MOLD. Additionally, our dogs training has primarily prepared them through repeated practice in finding mold that cannot be seen by humans or other dogs.

Dogs are unique because they are not driven by money or greed like humans. Dogs have few things that entice them to work. Our dogs are rewarded by their favorite toy's. Not only are they trained to work for their toys, but their handlers are trained with the ability to read and recognize their body language and cues to aid in even more accurate results.

Mold dogs are far more accurate than traditional mold testing methods, and our teams are no exception. Each of our K9s must pass a rigorous third-party certification through the American Working Dog Association (AWDA), achieving a score of 90% or higher. During testing, the dog and handler team must detect every mold odor while navigating real-world distracting scents. Certification is valid for one year, after which the team must retest to ensure they continue meeting the highest standards. These strict requirements, evaluated by an unbiased third party, guarantee our clients receive the most reliable and accurate mold detection available.

Yes — mold detection dogs are one of the fastest methods of identifying hidden mold in a building. Mold dogs are a very fast form of mold detection because they can scan large areas in a short amount of time and immediately alert to the presence of mold odor. A trained detection dog can move through an entire home in a couple hours, pinpointing areas where mold is likely present—even behind walls, under flooring, or inside HVAC systems where it can’t be seen. Mold Dogs can get you results in a matter of hours vs. typical mold testing results take days to weeks.
