Is this asbestos under my floors???

Don’t just assume it isn’t, it could be mixed with another material. Call an asbestos surveyor to sample it .

Another groan. That's the typical unthinking jobsworth blame culture reaction. Anybody with half a brain can see that it's a lath & plaster ceiling with about 100 years of accumulated dead skin and clothing fluff lying on top. Why on Earth would anybody put asbestos on there?

that's interesting - it think I have similar under the insulation in my old loft. I wondered what it was. Will take a closer look.
When did people start covering this up with ceiling boards? I have a 1930s bungalow.
 
This is online asbestos training:

Does it magically appear in ceiling tiles if you damage them?
Most Bhs shops had Asbestos ceiling tiles they were used for a sleak look with no grid, we had to get specialists in to remove them, they were classed as safe for normal use, but if one got damaged it became like a crime scene.
