One way to detect listening devices is to use a radio. tuned to a static-filled station, move the radio around your room. If there's a hidden listening device, you might hear a change in the static coming from the radio. You'll notice that the static will become louder or softer as you move the radio around.

The bug sweeper or detector will use a radio frequency — or RF — sensor to pick up any suspect devices. While bugs will emit an RF signal, other devices may also emit these frequencies. This means you may receive a false-positive result if there is a cell phone, microwave oven, or other RF devices nearby.

One of the best methods to check for bugs and listening devices is by conducting a manual search. Look under chairs couches, tables, check light fixtures, decorations, outlets, house plants, and any other place that may hide a device.
