Bug Sweeps & TSCM
If someone is listening, we will find it.
Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM), commonly known as bug sweeps, is the professional detection and removal of unauthorized surveillance devices including hidden cameras, listening devices, recording equipment, and GPS trackers. Watson PI conducts professional TSCM sweeps for homes, offices, vehicles, and conference rooms throughout Central Texas using professional-grade detection equipment. Whether you suspect a spouse, business partner, competitor, or other party of unauthorized surveillance, Watson PI can determine definitively whether you are being monitored.
What We Provide
Why This Investigation Matters
Unauthorized surveillance is a serious violation of your privacy and, in many circumstances, a criminal offense under Texas law. If you have reason to believe you are being monitored without your consent, whether by a spouse during a divorce, a business competitor, or another party, a professional TSCM sweep can confirm or rule out surveillance with certainty. Watson PI uses professional-grade detection equipment that far exceeds the capability of consumer devices.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need a bug sweep?
Common indicators include unexplained knowledge of private conversations, unusual behavior from a spouse or business partner, strange sounds on phone lines, or unusual electronic devices in your home or office. If you have any concern, a sweep can provide definitive answers.
Is it legal to remove surveillance devices found during a sweep?
In most circumstances, yes, if the device was placed without your consent in your own property. However, we recommend consulting with an attorney before removing any discovered device, as it may constitute evidence in legal proceedings.
How long does a TSCM sweep take?
A typical residential sweep takes 2–4 hours. Office sweeps vary based on size and complexity. Vehicle inspections typically take 1–2 hours.
