I doubt they want to spend the money on a room at Disney for anything nefarious. Beside all they ever did was look in the bathroom, so under the bed would be all you needed to hide stuff, they never even vacuum under there.
There has been upgrades to technology surrounding explosives detection. For a long time trained explosive dogs were utilized on scene but they now have hand held vapor detecting instruments that suck in scents and analyze them for minute traces of materials used in explosives. These hand held devices are very sensitive and are being used more frequently as preventative measures and security. You get an instantaneous reading that alerts you if something is present.
Security measures are improved AFTER an incident happens - Fact
I've been at Disney hotels, all levels, a lot over the past two years and haven't had that issue at all. Value and Moderate is supposed to be every other day. Deluxe is every day. That's been pretty consistent as far as I can tell.
This is my experience as well. We always come back to the room for a rest break/pool time and have never been interrupted. However, we have had housekeeping knock on our room at 8:00ish to see if they could make the room up. We usually just tell them we'll be out of the room shortly and when we expect to return.
That sounds more like a bed bug check
Security would not be wasting their time doing a bed bug check. As I explained above they are checking for signs of explosive particles in the air.
Perhaps security needed to accompany a 3rd party who was checking for bed bugs? Not saying that was the case, but it could be.
Could be the case but Disneys k9 team does check resorts for bed bugs among other things.
In that case they would have had to have entered the room . Bed bug detecting dogs are specifically trained for detecting for that and must enter a space to scent out the bug or bug eggs. The OP stated that the security stood in one spot, used his device and left. The dog did not enter the room for a search pattern. Also it would be highly unlikely that a k9 accompanying a security officer would be trained for that.
There was no mention of a 3 rd party .
Yea, it was WDW security. If it was one of those hand held detectors, it’s crazy how much security changes over time! Thanks for the insight!
You're welcome. As a professional dog trainer with multi training background including years of K9 experience, I know some things others dont know. Also maintaining contact with K9 handlers Im kept in the loop of new devices and up to date training techniques being employed.
