When you hire a bed bug dog as part of a bed bug inspection, try and limit the number of distractions in the home so the dog is most effective at sniffing out the scent of live bed bugs. Remove any pets, pet food, and pet toys.
Clean any spilled food and vacuum crumbs, because after all, even a highly trained dog is still a dog, and they will still get distracted if there are snacks to eat on the ground. Additionally, do not apply any pesticides to surfaces prior to arrival, because they may harm the dog.
