Dill in story on bedbug-hunting beagle
Comments from Jim Dill of the UMaine Cooperative Extension faculty are included in a Bangor Daily News story about a beagle trained to find bedbugs. Modern Pest Services, a Brunswick-based company with offices in Bangor and other New England locations, recently brought the dog on board to help deal with bedbug issues. Dill says the animals are effective in finding those pests, and that he knows of several companies using them.
