Our dog, Nips, and her two handlers are NESDCA certified handling teams. Nips comes to Northeast Ohio by the way of the highly regarded J & K Training Academy in Florida. J & K Academy is recognized as one of the world's premier canine scent training facilities.
Nips and the handling team went through a rigorous training program to ensure the highest quality of scent detection work. Our bed bug handling team can help fight against bed bugs in a variety of ways. We are Northeast Ohio based but will service anywhere there is a need.
Canines are proven to be the most accurate and efficient tool in detecting bed bugs which is key to an effective treatment program. In research performed by the University of Florida, NESDCA-certified canines averaged a 98% accuracy rate in detecting the odor of live bed bugs and viable eggs in a controlled hotel room experiment. Human visual inspections are estimated to be only 30% accurate.
