How accurate are bed bug detection dogs?
Professionally trained bed bug detection dogs are one of the most accurate tools for identifying bed bug infestations. When properly trained and handled, K9 detection teams can achieve accuracy rates significantly higher than traditional visual inspections alone.

Why use a K9 bed bug inspection instead of a visual inspection?
Bed bugs are extremely small and excellent at hiding in cracks, furniture, mattresses, and walls. A visual inspection alone can miss early infestations.
K9 bed bug detection dogs can quickly scan large areas and identify the scent of live bed bugs and eggs that may not yet be visible. This allows us to locate infestations earlier and provide more targeted and effective treatment.
How long does a bed bug inspection take?
Most K9 bed bug inspections take 15–45 minutes, depending on the size of the home, apartment, hotel room, or commercial space being inspected.
Because detection dogs work quickly and efficiently, they can inspect multiple rooms much faster than traditional inspection methods.
What happens if bed bugs are detected?
If our K9 team detects bed bug activity, we will clearly identify the affected areas and recommend the most effective treatment plan. Early detection allows treatments to be more targeted, which can help reduce treatment time, cost, and disruption.
Our goal is to eliminate the infestation quickly and prevent the problem from spreading.

You may need a professional bed bug inspection if you notice:
