Here's a Tip for Validating Moisture Within Walls

As environmental professionals, most of us should be carrying a variety of tools on a day-to-day basis. While thermal imaging can be a useful tool in assisting with narrowing in on walls with excess moisture, via identification of thermal anomalies, additional confirmation is still needed. Even moisture meters can present false-positives, depending on the construction materials located behind the walls. For example, a metal corner bead or electrical strike plate can indicate a high level of moisture. In reality, a piece of metal is simply acting as a conductor and completing the circuit - which a moisture meter will think means "wet".
