In 2007 Shay Cook and Caroline Upton recognized a need in the agricultural community for more effective insect infestation detection methods. Combining Shay's scientific background with Caroline's experience as a third generation vineyard owner, they created Insect Detection Dogs. The Vine Mealybug was chosen as the first target because it is so difficult to detect early on using traditional methods. Their current focus is on working with growers and the Agricultural Commissioner’s Office to minimize the impact of the Vine Mealybug on vineyards by detecting the pests earlier and more precisely than previously possible. This will help reduce remediation costs, both organic and non-organic, while combating the spread of the Vine Mealybug.
