Quality Counts!

Each AMK9 S.C.E.N.T.S bed bug detection dog team has been dually certified by both the National Entomology Scent Detection Canine Association (NESDCA) and International Association of Canine Pest Inspectors (IAOCPI).

Where there’s one, there’s always more, that’s why early and accurate detection is critical!

  • Bed bugs are tiny, hard to spot with the naked eye, and are more active at night where they come out of hiding to feed on human blood.
  • Bed bugs typically hide in beds, upholstery, plaster, walls, carpet, door seams, and other dark crevices.
  • Females lay eggs daily and produce between 200-500 bed bugs in their lifespan.
  • Cleanliness doesn’t prevent bed bugs. They are attracted to carbon dioxide exhaled by humans, not unsanitary conditions.
  • Bed bugs are commonly transferred in the luggage of unknowing travelers.
