The lead-paint era ended in 1978. The lead-pigment era never really did. The lead-water-service era depends on which house you bought. Knowing what is in your specific house is the difference between an abstract concern and a 30-second test.
Knowing which sources are real in your specific environment. Knowing which to test first. Knowing what to do when the test comes back positive. That is what the site is for.
Pre-1978 = lead paint likely. Pre-1986 = lead service line likely. Pre-1990s = decorated dishes likely lead pigment.
Hand-to-mouth peaks at 18-30 months. The IRL math is tightest in that window.
One drop. 30 seconds. UV light. The kit pays for itself the first time it catches anything.
