yes they apply a tape on crevices, joins on the walls and ceiling, in bedroom cupboards, floor and wall heater venting outlets etc then measure the amount of asbestos fibres that get collected

and unfortunately it does get collected and that is in the houses where the removal program took place in I think the late 80's or early 90's

the stuff is microscopic and that is the problem
you can't see it with the eye

best to be rid of it but the questions then remain - where does the stuff go for permanent storage that is safe
