A dual-use thermometer including a main body and a probe secured thereto for receiving heat radiation emitted from a first area and a second area. A non-detachable cap which is secured to the main body and the probe are movable relative to each other, thereby allowing the non-detachable cap to surround the probe for receiving heat radiation emitted from the first area and reveal the probe for receiving heat radiation emitted from the second area by movement of the non-detachable cap or the probe.
