You can buy a radio frequency bug detector and wave it in your room or place where you think that there is a spy camera. You have to move it very slowly along the wall and when the signal is transmitted, it will tell you whether it is a bug or a wireless network or thermostat. Make sure you select the piece, which is capable of detecting the standard frequencies transmitted by the cameras. The standard frequencies are 900MHz, 1.2 GHz, 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz.
2. You may select the detector Gadget
This may be slower than the RF detector but it is quite helpful in making the LED’s of the spy cameras to sparkle while you view through this detector. They are the best option for those cameras, which do not transmit. There is a glass viewfinder and when you see through it you can see all the spy cameras that have any sparkling substance or light by making their lens sparkle. It is best for those cameras that are no hidden behind the mirror and plastic.
3. Disturbances in furniture and dust can be the best signal.
You can easily find some good clues by noticing the position of the furniture. Has it been disturbed or is it the same as it was before you left the last time. Also you can check the various changes in the dust pattern of your room as there must be some tempering for sure. Note the position of the ceiling lights, tiles and other fixtures. It is sure that when these things are moved in your absence some dust or bricks may have fallen on the floor. Always remember these cameras are mostly placed where you will be doing the majority of your work in your room to have a straight line of recording. Physically finding can be a time consuming task so it is best that you start with your line of sight.
4. Catch any Holes and Black dots
Always look for any kind of black dots and holes in the walls or on the ceiling as there may be spy camera hidden in it. Since pinhole spy cameras have the size of 1mm to 3mm in diameter, it is very easy to hide them in the holes and any kind of holding dots.
