What type of buildings and locations require an anthrax survey?
Anthrax surveys are recommended for:
- Pre 1950s buildings – Especially those with original plaster or insulation.
- Historic and heritage buildings – Due to traditional construction materials.
- Industrial sites – Former tanneries, wool mills, and slaughterhouses may have contamination risks.
Renovation and demolition projects – Any work that disturbs potential anthrax-containing materials.
