New York bedbugs, beware: The K-9 squad is on the prowl.
A company that employs dogs with keen noses says numerous New York hotels have called on them to sniff out bedbugs that have infested many businesses.
Carl Massicott, head of Advanced K9 Detectives, said his company’s six dogs have been kept busy by a high volume of requests from hotels seeking to rid themselves of bedbugs amidst a citywide infestation…
Alas, they’re not saying where the dogs have been sniffing. Or where they haven’t. But anything to combat New York’s bedbug surge is welcome. (Especially at the rates hotels are charging in NYC these days.)
For the first time, I think I might actually prefer to have had a dog in my hotel room before I move my stuff in.

Bed bug detecting canines are a seriously good idea. I suggest travelers also learn to case out their hotel rooms, since most hotels don’t provide such a service yet. More info on how to do so here:
