Then, depending to an extent on where you live, you should have a lot of leverage via tenants' laws and city ordinances on your side. I know a few people who have done this with household dust samples in new construction buildings to get out of leases they were unhappy with.

Very helpful post. Got a nice big sample from the toilet cover of blue fibers.

Will google it
