Canines have been used to detect hidden mould for over 20 years. As one of the added investigative tools of a mould inspector, the dogs are able to pinpoint the location of mould infestations with a 98% rate of accuracy. They have been able to find mould behind fiber walls, wood and concrete. And they are your family friend when not working. 

In this episode we revisit Hank Nolan's presentation from our Lunch and Learn series (October 2020).

Hank is a retired Master Sgt from the US Army. In his 27 year career as a Military Policeman he spent 6 years as a K9 handler.

Upon his return home he and his business partner continued training canines for explosive and narcotics detection.  They received an inquiry from a client as to if dogs could be safely trained to detect hidden moulds is their buildings.  The challenge was accepted. Over 1300 dogs later, here we are.
