# How does saliva testing work?

Nimbus's at-home test kits include everything you need for collection and can be ordered online or by phone (some restrictions may apply). When your sample has been collected, return the filled tube(s) with the completed paperwork in the pre-addressed, pre-paid packaging and mailer bag provided with the kit. Once Nimbus has received your sample, results will be returned to you and/or your health care provider in approximately 5 to 7 business days.
