K-9 Bed Bug Detection

Bed bugs can be difficult to find, especially on large commercial properties. That’s where bed bug detection dogs can help! Canines are used in bed bug detection efforts all over the world. Some dog breeds have over 220 million receptors in their noses, which helps them keep track of and differentiate between specific scents with ease and efficiency.

When it comes to battling bed bugs, McNeely Pest Control, Inc always stays ahead of the curve. That’s why we offer updated and tested methods of bed bug detection, including canine bed bug inspections.

Improving on Traditional Bed Bug Detection

While inspections conducted solely by technicians can be fruitful, recent studies have shown that dogs can detect bed bugs much better than humans can. 

Bed bugs are notoriously hard to find, even well-trained technicians. They can hide in spaces as thin as a credit card, which leaves hundreds of hiding places vulnerable inside our homes. In addition, bed bug inspections without canine help can be quite labor-intensive, with most appointments taking a good portion of the day and racking up hourly labor costs.
