Barker St. Detectives is the ONLY nationally certified bed bug dog detection team in the state of Nebraska. Our certification is from NESDCA, the National Entomology Scent Detection Canine Association.

Clover is our bed bug detection beagle. She has over 18 months of daily training in various environments. She practices daily with live bed bugs and viable eggs to ensure she is at the top of her game. When she finds bed bugs, she sits and points her nose to indicate where the bugs are located.

Barker St. Detectives can find bed bugs before an exterminator and help you avoid a costly infestation!
