A system and method for detecting the presence of and/or removing or disabling RFID tags in commercial items. In one embodiment, the commercial item is subjected to an electromagnetic or particle field of sufficient energy to destroy any embedded RFID tags. In another embodiment, RFID tags are interrogated and located by a local receiver where they then can be removed or destroyed. In still another embodiment, a commercial item is scanned by x-ray similar to existing security systems. Embedded RFID tags are located either manually or automatically and then either removed or destroyed. The detection and removal of RFID tags is also a business method where a fee can be charged for clearing an item of hidden or embedded RFID, tags.
