K-9 Bed Bug Inspections

Contact Keller’s For Accurate Bed Bug Detection

Dogs make everything better - even pest control!  Trained bed bug dogs have a keen sense of smell that can detect bed bug infestations much more quickly and efficiently than a human inspector (especially when searching for eggs and nymphs).  At Keller’s Pest Control, we rely on our licensed bed bug dogs and their handlers to accurately identify bed bug infestations.

How Our Bed Bug Dogs & Handlers Work

Visual Assessment
Your K-9 handler will visually assess the room and form a plan to best inspect the area.

Preliminary Inspection
Your bed bug dog and handler will work their way throughout the room, inspecting baseboards, laundry, furniture (including sofas, chairs, and beds), and making note of the K-9’s alerts.

Visual Confirmation
Your handler will inspect areas that the K-9 gave the alert to - searching for evidence of bed bug infestation such as the bugs themselves, eggs, nymphs, cast skin, and fecal matter.

Why Choose Keller's Bed Bug Dog

NACPI Certified
Our bed bug dogs and handlers are certified through North American Canine Pest Inspectors.  Certification standards include live testing in a variety of locations and situations under controlled environments. 

Ongoing Training
Our K-9 inspection teams are among the best. They train for a minimum of two hours every day, building their bonds and solidifying their skills in bed bug inspection.

Discretion
Our bed bug dogs have been trained to alert discreetly, by lying down and pointing their noses toward the infestation, rather than barking. This level of discretion is ideal for hotels, apartment complexes, hospitals, schools, and any other high traffic area where the customers don’t need to be alerted.

Accuracy & Efficiency
Trained and certified bed bug dogs are more efficient than humans when inspecting. In fact, dogs have 96% accuracy rating in identifying a bed bug infestation, compared to 25% accuracy rating that humans have.
