Shownotes

Have you ever done an ERMI home mold test, gotten your results back, and wondered: "What the heck does this all mean?"

Or, have you done an ERMI before and had someone else analyze it, but you don't quite trust their analysis, and you want to be able to understand it yourself?

If you said yes to ANY of these questions, then this episode is for you!

In today's episode, I'm teaching you how to interpret my favorite home mold test to start with - an ERMI test by Envirobiomics. And I'm going to teach you how to interpret it in 5 minutes or less so that you know what your next steps should be based on your specific results.

Today, I'll be breaking down:

  • Why I think the ERMI test is the best home mold kit to buy
  • What each major section of the ERMI means (ERMI vs. HERTSMI results)
  • How to interpret ERMI test results in 5 minutes or less (better than your doctor or mold inspector!)
  • What your next steps should be based on your ERMI analysis

If you're ready to simplify your mold healing journey and clarify the exact next steps you need to take (without wasting money), then this episode is for you.
