Our TSCM Home Bug Sweep detects all types of bugging devices:

Audio Bugs (Listening Devices)

• Microphones: Small wired or wireless microphones hidden in furniture, walls, or household appliances to capture conversations.

• Transmitters: Devices that wirelessly send audio data to a remote location, often via radio frequency (RF), cellular, or Bluetooth.

• Wired bugs: These are physically connected to a power source and audio capture device, making them harder to detect without specialized tools.

• Voice-activated recorders: Devices that only start recording when they detect sound, making them difficult to find during casual observation.

Hidden Cameras (Video Surveillance Devices)

• Miniature cameras: Covert cameras that can be disguised as everyday objects (clocks, smoke detectors, air purifiers, etc.).

• Pin-hole cameras: Very small cameras that are embedded in walls, appliances, or even light fixtures, typically hardwired or wirelessly transmitting video to a remote location.

• Night vision cameras: Cameras equipped with infrared (IR) sensors to record video in low-light or dark environments.

• Wi-Fi and IP cameras: Internet-connected cameras that transmit video footage via Wi-Fi or other wireless networks, allowing remote access.

Wireless Devices (RF and Bluetooth Transmitters)

• RF (Radio Frequency) bugs: Wireless bugs that use RF to transmit conversations or video to a remote receiver. These devices can be found in various frequencies and may transmit over long distances.

• Bluetooth bugs: These work over short distances and can connect to nearby smartphones or computers to transmit data.

• Wi-Fi-enabled surveillance equipment: Cameras or bugs connected to the home's Wi-Fi network, which transmit data over the internet.

GSM Bugs (Cellular-based Devices)

• GSM bugs: Devices that use the cellular network to transmit audio or video. They can operate through SIM cards and send real-time data or recordings via cellular towers, making them very hard to detect with basic methods.

Phone and Line Interception

• Landline bugs: Devices that tap into home phone lines to listen in on conversations.

• Telephone interceptors: These could be placed inside phones or between connections, transmitting phone calls to a remote location.

Recording Devices

• Audio recorders: Covert audio recorders could be placed in the home, recording conversations to be retrieved later by the person who planted the device.

Vibration or Laser Microphones

• Laser microphones: Devices that pick up sound vibrations off surfaces like windows from a distance, which can be used to eavesdrop from outside the home.

• Vibration-based bugs: Devices that attach to surfaces like walls or windows to capture sound through vibrations rather than through air.

Infrared or Thermal Surveillance Devices

• Some bugs may include infrared sensors or thermal cameras that detect movement or heat, especially in low-light or dark environments.
