Vermiculite insulation that comes from a particular mine before 1990 is likely to contain asbestos. This is particularly true in the U.S. However, not all types of vermiculite insulation contain asbestos. Since you can't detect the presence of asbestos without special equipment, it's best to assume that the insulation contains the dangerous mineral and to either leave it alone or hire a professional to handle it.

Asbestos testing takes place in two stages—collection and lab testing. Collection can take less than 20 minutes if a professional manages to get a direct sample. If air samples are required, then the pro will set up a testing device and return to collect it. In both cases, the sample is sent to a lab and results are confirmed or denied usually within one to two days.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), you should contact the following officials to report a case of asbestos exposure:

Asbestos subject matter experts in your state
EPA regional office
Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Assistance Information Service Hotline via mail, email, or phone
EPA’s Asbestos Ombudsman via phone or fax

When learning how to test for asbestos in a popcorn ceiling, you have an option for a DIY job or to hire a professional tester.
