Why It Matters

The availability of low-cost surveillance technology means anyone can become a target. If your privacy feels compromised, it deserves a professional answer.

Approximately 1 in 5 spouses (20%) are estimated to use some form of spy gear or engage in potentially illegal surveillance against their partner prior to or during a divorce.

FAQ

Common Questions

What are common signs my home is bugged?

  • Physical evidence: Small holes in walls/ceilings, unusual debris, or unexpected electrical work.
  • Behavioral changes: A partner or acquaintance seems to know private information that was only discussed at home.
  • Strange noises: Clicks, buzzing, or static sounds on phone lines or radios.
  • Odd appliance behavior: Outlet covers, smoke detectors, or electronics behaving unusually.

What does a professional sweep include?

  • Physical Inspection: Technicians manually check common hiding spots like electrical outlets, smoke detectors, light fixtures, and furniture.
  • RF Spectrum Analysis: Identifying radio signals transmitted by wireless bugs, cameras, or GPS trackers.
  • Thermal Imaging: Using cameras to identify heat signatures from active electronics hidden inside walls or furniture.
  • Vehicle Inspection: A complete sweep of vehicles to detect GPS trackers.

How much does a bug sweep cost?

Professional services generally range between $2,500 and $4,000+ for a typical home. Costs vary based on the size of the property, the complexity of the security concerns, and the technology used.

What is the difference between DIY and professional sweeps?

  • DIY: Involves manual inspection and, at best, cheap RF detectors. These often fail to detect modern or professionally installed "passive" bugs that don't constantly transmit signals.
  • Professional: Uses sophisticated, expensive equipment and expertise to find dormant, sophisticated, or hardwired devices.

How long does a residential sweep take?

A thorough sweep of an average home typically takes trained professionals roughly 4 to 6 hours.

Can a sweep find devices that are currently turned off?

Yes. While some bugs only transmit occasionally, professionals can often find non-transmitting (passive) devices through physical inspection, non-linear junction detectors, or thermal imaging — even if the device is turned off.

What should I do if I find a bug?

  • Do not touch it.
  • Do not turn it off.
  • Leave the area and call the police.
