what is a dye stealer

A dye stealer is a term used in the world of pregnancy testing. This happens when the pregnancy test strip is saturated and the dye is “stolen” from the control line, making the test appear negative. However, it can actually mean a positive result if the dye spills over to the test line. It’s important to always look closely at the results to avoid a false negative.
