Trained Dogs are 98% Accurate in Finding Termites.
Detection dogs, or "sniffer dogs", are extensively
used by Police and Customs Officials for the detection
of drugs and explosives. You will often see dogs working
in airports with their handler checking passengers
for any illegal items that they may have in their
possession. So it makes sense to use dogs for the
detection of live termites in buildings. Termite detection
dogs are trained the same way as Police and Customs
dogs except that they are taught to detect the scent
of termites rather than the scent of an illicit substance.
Our termite detection dogs undergo months of intensive
training with specialist and nationally accredited
dog trainers before being put into service. It is
this thorough training that makes these animals the
most efficient and effective termite detection tool
available.

Like
other detection dogs, termite detection dogs
walk through a property and pick up the scent
of the item they are trained to find - in our
case it is termites. The dogs hone in on the
area of infestation and give the handler a positive
signal that they have detected active termites
in the building by sitting down at the point
of termite activity.
Our Beagles are placid, well behaved, clean,
medium-sized dogs that will not intimidate you
or your family in your home.
