Scout The Bed Bug Sniffing Beagle

SCOUT – THE BED BUG SNIFFING BEAGLE.

Scout is the ONLY Bed Bug Sniffing canine on Long Island and arrived in East Meadow from a training facility in Florida, where he spent months being trained to route out Bed Bugs with his finely tuned nose. (It’s exactly like a bomb or drug sniffing canine – he is trained to sniff out Bed Bugs to receive a reward or food.)



Scout works with Jim Skinner of A&C Exterminating in East Meadow. And while there are several methods of attacking the bugs once they are found, with some being more effective than others, there are few truly reliable methods of rooting all the bugs out, so they can be killed. Until now…

Scout is literally trained to sniff these pests out wherever they may hide. With most any kind of soft material serving as either a nesting ground or a transportation vehicle, Bed Bugs get around. They can easily infest an entire apartment building, hotel or dormitory. They even turn up in places not traditionally thought of for Bed Bugs, such as the seat backs and cushions in a movie theater or auditorium.
