Returning to the site of their last grand stand bed bugs have found their way back to New York City. Once a widespread problem during the 1940’s bed bugs were nearly wiped out with the heavy use of the synthetic pesticide DDT, however with the controversial chemical no longer in use and bed bugs building up a natural resistance to other pest control sprays the problem of bed bug infestations is again on the rise. Small, mostly nocturnal and extremely difficult to kill bed bugs are one of the most persistent and annoying of all insects and to combat their surge into urban areas pest control experts are turning to man’s best friend to help in eliminating the mite size critters forever.

Because of the harmful side effects of DDT its use was mostly banned in the United States in 1972 and soon after DDT was also banned from agricultural use worldwide. Unfortunately DDT was one of the few chemicals that actually killed bed bugs and with it no longer in use bed bugs have returned in droves to infest homes, apartments, dormitories, hostels and other dwellings. With the increase in global travel and crowding urban areas bed bugs have found fertile ground in New York City and are again making life miserable for people at night.

Because of their small size and stealth habits bed bugs have been extremely difficult to locate, contain and exterminate. Adding to the problem is the fact that the pesticides that work on cockroaches, termites and ants have little or no effect on bed bugs. Pest control experts are trying alternative methods to help in the war on bed bugs and specially trained bed bug sniffing dogs are proving invaluable in this fight.

Trained the same way a drug or bomb sniffing dog is trained bed bug dogs are conditioned to snuff out bed bug infestations and lead their handlers to the trouble zone where exterminators can either freeze or steam the insects to death. Often bed bugs find their way into dark and damp crevices in bed frames and mattresses, couches, floor boards and piles of clothing so once an area is positive for bed bugs the process of elimination can begin.

Dogs have an acute sense of smell which is useful in detecting bed bugs. Though not invisible bed bugs are quite small and pest control experts relying solely on their vision can easily miss a bed bug congregation. However, dogs using their heightened olfactory abilities have a 96% accuracy rate in correctly identifying bed bug infestations. Bed bug dogs can save you the trouble of sealing off an entire room or discarding furniture by zeroing in on exactly where the bed bugs are so you can isolate specific pieces of furniture to deal with the problem. Once bed bugs have been found by the dog expert exterminators can then be called in to eliminate the insects for good.

Bed Bug Finders LLC specializes in the use of bed bug dogs for inspecting and detecting infestations in both residential and commercial buildings throughout the New York metropolitan area and Long Island.
