Can I bring in a sample of our soil to be tested for toxoplasmosis and to ensure what the ph level is for growing grass and plants please?

Hello Cassandra,

You can bring a soil sample in to test for soil pH and nutrient content. Unfortunately, our soils lab does not have the ability to test for diseases or parasites. I will attach a document showing you how to take a soil sample.

Good luck!
