When strange smells or stains appear on your carpet, deciding between inspection and testing depends on your goal. Inspection is a visual check for moisture, discoloration, or visible mold patches, perfect for spotting surface issues. Testing goes further, using samples to identify hidden mold species and measure spore levels. If you just want to know if there's a problem, inspection works; if you need details for health concerns or removal plans, testing gives clarity.
