mold test

Is there any definitive test for mold other than visual look like a chemical it will react with or a light test to be more certain?

but That is once you have confirmed its cobweb im looking to see if there is a test for it. like a positive test or a black light test something that will make it easier to tell.

There is no test that will indicate mold mycelium vs mushroom mycelium. Experience is the best teacher.

You should be looking for bright white, somewhat thick growing, mycelium. Anything else other than bright white is suspect.

thank you I was waiting for an answer like that cause it would be a good idea to devlop one for those i just cant tell moments most of the the time you will notice something is amiss but be nice to know. like taking a biopsy and growing on a plate like when they swab you at the doctors and then test the culture by seeing what colonizes.

With experience you'll learn to ID molds in an instant, visually.  A magnifying glass will help sometimes.  You can tell for sure with a good microscope too.
