CheckMate 5 Minute Infidelity Test Kit say they sell 1,000 kits a week in New York. As many as 1,000 New Yorkers a week are checking whether their partners are cheats by using a take-home kit to test suspicious stains on clothes and bed linens. The $50 test — called the CheckMate 5 Minute Infidelity Test Kit — has been flying off the shelves of city stores over the past year. Users drop a chemical contained in the kit onto the suspicious spot and blot it with a small paper strip. If semen is detected, the strip turns purple within seconds. The kit includes instructions that tell the doubting partner not to have sex with their wife or girlfriend for a week before doing the test so they can be sure it's another man's semen. Brad Holmes, president of Evergreen Industries, which created the CheckMate test, said about 1,000 kits are sold weekly in New York through store sales and Internet orders. Holmes said one customer who ordered the kit online said he was worried that his wife was having an affair with their neighbor, who was also married. 'This guy hadn't had sex with his wife in a long time,' Holmes said. 'He had gotten a pair of underwear that his wife had just thrown on the floor and he tested them. 'When it came back positive, he knew the spot couldn't have been from him because they hadn't had sex in a while. 'When he confronted her, she broke down, told him everything, and it ended up that it was his neighbor. He had been in this guy's bedroom in his bed.' Some people that buy the test kit are scared that their partner will discover they have it. But it shows up as 'Evergreen' on a credit-card statement, and when it comes in the mail, it is wrapped in plain paper. Although the majority of users are men, women are also using the kit to nail a cheating husband. Men can leave traces of semen in their underwear for up to two hours after sex. Women try to nab their partners if they are skeptical about where he says he's been.
