>Are there any kits being sold that test harmful substances in tisanes? Barring sending samples off to labs.
No there is no such thing as a cheap at home "harmful substance" test. You can buy tests for certain things like lead but not comprehensive pesticide tests. I would not worry too much about contamination (and you can buy most herbs organic) unless you are buying sketchy Chinese herbal remedies. Mystery boner pills really are sometimes spiked with drugs. What are you concerned about in particular?

>just buying herbal tisanes form mountain rose herbs or something like that they aren't going to use anything that isn't safe to consume regularly.
As a caveat to that they do sell some herbs that are not meant for consumption or have side effects in the bulk herb section. Read the precautions section and do your own research if you are unfamiliar with a herb.
