MOSCOW, August 12 South Korean border guards have trained a sniffer dog to detect bedbugs on members of the national team and fans at the main international airport after returning from the Paris Olympics, Sky reports.
A beagle named Chek will be meeting travelers from the French capital at Incheon Airport to check for bedbugs after an outbreak of these insects occurred in Paris last year.
Pest control experts say the dog can detect the blood-sucking creatures in a standard hotel room in less than two minutes. Flights arriving in South Korea directly from Paris will be disinfected once a week, compared to the usual monthly frequency, and the airport quarantine service will be ready to respond if parasites are found on board the planes or at the airport.
The team of specialists and the dog Chek will continue their enhanced service until September 8.
The Paris Olympic Games were held from July 26 to August 11.
