A Milford woman has put her dog to work to sniff out bed bugs around town.

Addie the Beagle is known as the canine bed bug detective. She's trained and paid to find the creepy critters so people can get rid of them.

"She knows what to look for, and when she alerts, she scratches," said Maureen Abbott, Addie's owner.

"Been busy lately," she added. "Grand Rapids and Holland, we've been there... and up north."

FOX 2's Andrea Isom introduces you to this four-legged pest control expert in her video report.

For more information on Addie, call (734) 576-1832 or visit www.bedbugk9.net.
