Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I know if I need a bug sweep?
If you suspect you're being watched, hear unexplained sounds from electronics, notice objects out of place, or have undergone a high-conflict separation or lawsuit, it's worth getting a professional evaluation.
Can devices be hidden in smart home gadgets?
Yes. Many hidden cameras and mics are disguised as normal smart devices or accessories like USB chargers, speakers, or alarms.
Will the sweep damage anything in my home or office?
No. Our inspections are non-invasive and leave no damage. If anything needs to be opened, we get your permission first.
Do you sweep vehicles and rental cars?
Absolutely. We check for GPS trackers and recording devices under dashboards, seats, and wheel wells.
How long does a bug sweep take?
Most home or office sweeps take between 4–8 hours. Larger or more complex environments may take a full day or more.
Can you detect devices that are turned off or not broadcasting?
Yes. We use non-linear junction detectors and thermal imaging to find devices even if they’re inactive or disconnected from power.
Are your services confidential?
Yes. We operate with full discretion. Your information is never shared, and no markings are left behind.
