A sequence that reduces guesswork.

Identification, treatment and follow-up are different decisions. Keeping them separate makes quotes clearer and evidence easier to compare.

1Identify

Use specimens, spotting, cast skins and harbourage evidence—not bites alone.

2Act

Match the method and room scope to what inspection supports.

3Verify

Define follow-up, monitor consistently and record new observations.
