sampling instructionsSwab sampling kit instructions
Our eDNA swab kits are ideal for direct specimen swabbing; nest boxes, burrows and other spots where animals leave behind trace DNA. Just swab the surface, place the swab into the preservative tube, snap off the excess stick, and seal everything in the sample bag, ready to send to Wilderlab for eDNA analysis.
