10 REASONS WHY CHOOSING ELITE K9 PAYS OFF

1. An effective team of dogs

A dog that is properly trained by a dog handler can efficiently detect bed bugs for up to 40 consecutive minutes. After that, the dog loses its concentration and starts breathing through the mouth. As soon as they stop breathing through their noses, dogs lose their ability to detect. Elite K9 has several trained and certified dogs. Each dog sniffs for no longer than 30 minutes to ensure the best and quickest detection. The dog is then sent to rest while another dog takes over the work. This provides an ongoing inspection and reduces the time required to complete the detection process, resulting in a quality detection at a lesser cost.

2. Bigger and faster dogs

The fact that our German Shepherds are big makes them more efficient when sniffing floors, mattresses and under mattresses in three quick steps. Moreover, German Shepherds can stand on their hind legs to detect bed bugs in places like higher bed headboards, door frames or behind switches. As such, we offer fuller, quicker and better detections.

3. High-quality work

Canine detection is five times faster and three times more efficient than detections performed by specialized exterminators (Journal of Economic Entomology, 2014).

4. Cost-efficient

Extermination is expensive and often requires re-entry time. As such, an accurate detection avoids an unnecessary waste of treatment.

5. Peace of mind

A systematic and thorough preventive canine inspection will give you peace of mind and reassure your customers, and confirm the absence of bed bugs in your establishment. We provide a certificate of inspection after each inspection.

6. Objectivity

Since we are entirely independent, our focus is on carrying out fair, accurate and quick detections. Rest assured, Elite K9 will provide clear answers.

7. Discreet dogs always at the height of their skills

Detections are carried out by a qualified dog handler who trained our German Shepherds, which are trained on a daily basis to keep their skills sharp. Our dogs have been certified in bed bug detection by an independent firm using a strict protocol. As such, our dogs are efficient, calm, discreet and obedient.

8. A sound environmental choice

Exterminating what is strictly necessary reduces costs as well as your environmental footprint.

9. Flexibility

We carry out our inspections at your best convenience: be it during the day, evenings, or weekends.

10. A professional team

Our effective, discreet, accurate, honest, determined, reliable, thorough and punctual team provides a professional experience.
