If you mean to do a sweep of a room to check for espionage devices such as hidden microphones, cameras, etc. then I have seen this referred to as "un barrido electrónico," defined as "la busqueda sistemática de aparatos de espionaje activos, sistemas de escuchas y pinchazos telefónicos."

How do you you say to "debug" a room?

In a sentence, I suppose that you might use one of the following verbs:

?Hacer un barrido electrónico.
?Realizar un barrido electrónico.
?Efectuar un barrido electrónico.

Aside from this term, you might also try something like:

?Comprobar que no hay micrófonos ocultos en la habitación.
?Quitar de la habitación todos los micrófonos ocultos, camaras ocultas y otras intervenciones.
?Detectar los pinchazos telefónicos y otros dispositivos de grabación o escucha camuflados en un domicilio

to bug a line

You might try:

?Pinchar el teléfono (de alguien)
?Intervenir una llamada

Tuscantony, you're asking very difficult questions. Unfortunatly, when I saw the shortlist version of the 'hot questions' I thought you meant de-bug, as in get rid of the fleas, lice and other insects. Therefore my answwer would be useless, LOL! Intercepción sounds likely, somebody will surely help with this if they realize it's not chemicals that are needed...
