Are You Being Watched or Recorded?

Business rivals, controlling partners, and hostile litigants sometimes use hidden cameras, GPS trackers, and audio bugs. We sweep homes, offices, and vehicles with professional detection equipment and careful physical inspection to find hidden surveillance devices.

People call us when someone seems to know things they should not, after a contentious breakup or business split, before sensitive meetings or negotiations, when moving into a new office, or when a car keeps turning up where it should not be noticed.

Physical Inspections

Methodical physical searches of furniture, fixtures, outlets, and structural elements for hidden devices.

Electronic Sweeps

Checking for RF transmissions, hidden Wi-Fi cameras, and cellular-enabled listening devices.

GPS Tracker Detection

Thorough sweeps of personal and fleet vehicles for tracking devices.

How a Bug Sweep Works

  1. Step 1

    Consultation from a safe phone

    Call us from a phone and location you trust, not the space you are worried about. We ask what has happened, who might be involved, and which rooms or vehicles matter.

  2. Step 2

    Plan the sweep

    We schedule a time that does not tip off anyone who may be listening, and define the areas to be checked.

  3. Step 3

    On-site sweep

    Investigators perform an electronic sweep and a physical search of the agreed rooms and vehicles in Indiana.

  4. Step 4

    Document and advise

    If we find a device, we photograph and document it in place and advise you on preserving it and involving police or your attorney, rather than simply throwing it away.

What You Receive

A written sweep report listing the areas and vehicles checked, the methods used, any devices or anomalies found with photographs and locations, and practical recommendations for keeping the space secure afterward.

What's Legal in Indiana

Placing a tracking device on a person or their vehicle without their knowledge or consent is a crime in Indiana under IC 35-46-8.5-1, with exceptions such as an owner tracking their own property. Intercepting communications without consent is a felony under IC 35-33.5. Private investigator firms in Indiana are licensed under Indiana Code IC 25-30 by the Private Investigator and Security Guard Licensing Board. Our license is PI22500020, and you can confirm it on the Indiana license search.

We sweep only spaces and vehicles you own or have the right to have inspected. A found device can be evidence, so we document it before anything is removed. For background, read our guide to TSCM bug sweeping and whether a GPS tracker is legal in Indiana.

Who It's For

Individuals going through a divorce or dealing with a stalker, executives and business owners before sensitive meetings, attorneys protecting privileged conversations, and companies with fleet vehicles.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my car has a GPS tracker?

Some trackers are easy to see under bumpers or in wheel wells; others are wired in. A professional vehicle sweep combines a physical inspection with electronic checks.

What should I do if you find a bug?

Leave it in place until it is documented. We photograph it and advise you on preserving it as evidence and reporting it to police or your attorney.

Should I talk about the sweep inside my home or office?

No. Call us from a phone and location you trust so you do not alert anyone who may be listening.

Do you perform sweeps outside Indiana?

No. Sweeps are fieldwork and happen in Indiana under our license.
