Dog Team Six LLC provides professional K9 bed bug detection directly to colleges, universities, residence halls, and student housing facilities throughout New Jersey, New York, and Eastern Pennsylvania.
Our K9 inspection services give your institution an independent resource for identifying potential bed bug activity and allow your facilities or housing team to determine when, where, and how frequently inspections are performed.
Dog Team Six can work directly with your facilities, housing, environmental health, or operations department while also coordinating with your existing pest control provider when treatment is necessary.
You maintain control of the inspection program while your existing pest control company can continue handling treatment and pest management services.
University residence halls can contain hundreds or even thousands of rooms. K9 scent detection provides an efficient way to inspect large numbers of rooms for potential bed bug activity.
Under typical working conditions, the Dog Team Six canine team can inspect approximately 25 dormitory rooms per hour.
That means institutions can use K9 detection for targeted inspections as well as larger residence-hall sweeps without relying solely on visual inspections or waiting for students to report a problem.
For particularly large projects, additional certified canine teams can be coordinated when necessary.
The period between student move-out and move-in creates an excellent opportunity to inspect residence halls before rooms are occupied again.
Dog Team Six can perform K9 sweeps after students leave, during summer turnover, or before the next group of students arrives.
If potential bed bug activity is identified, your facilities team has an opportunity to coordinate treatment with your pest control provider before the room is occupied again.
A planned turnover inspection program can help universities identify isolated concerns earlier, reduce disruption during the academic year, and provide an additional layer of protection for student housing.
Not every reported bite or suspected insect means there is an active bed bug problem.
When a concern is reported, Dog Team Six can provide a targeted K9 inspection of the affected room and, when appropriate, surrounding rooms or areas.
The inspection gives your university additional information to help determine the appropriate next step. If treatment is necessary, your existing pest control provider can then address the identified area.
This approach can help avoid unnecessary treatment while allowing genuine concerns to be addressed quickly.
Hiring Dog Team Six directly gives your institution greater control over its K9 inspection program.
Your facilities or housing team can determine when inspections are performed, which buildings or rooms are inspected, and whether K9 detection is used for reported concerns, preventive inspections, or large-scale residence hall sweeps.
Dog Team Six specializes in K9 bed bug detection. We do not need to replace your existing pest control provider. When potential activity is identified, your current pest control company can continue providing treatment and ongoing pest management services.
This separation allows your institution to maintain an independent detection resource while continuing to work with the pest control provider you already know and trust.
Whether you’re considering a residence hall sweep, summer turnover inspection, preventive program, or responding to a suspected bed bug concern, Dog Team Six can work directly with your institution to develop an inspection approach that fits your campus.
