  K-9 Bed Bug Detection History

In Canada, dogs have been successfully used by the military and law enforcement agencies to locate firearms, ammunition, explosives, narcotics, missing persons and accelerants used in suspected arson cases. The same training used for these purposes is now being used to train dogs to search for bed bugs and termites. It takes more than two months of training and costs approximately $10,000.00 for a dog to be able to be a k-9 bed bug detector. Kody can smell through walls, floors and even underground – long before humans can see any visible signs. Kody can crawl into tight spaces that human inspectors cannot. Early detection by a k9 bed bug detector can save human discomfort from bites by detecting and treating hot spots before the damage is done.
