Bounce Rate Extremely Low

Bounce rate for one of my client's website has drastically reduced. Its below 5%. Have ensured that GA code is placed only once. Any help or tips in identifying the root cause is much appreciated.
Shall be happy to share the URL if required.

From going through the page's html, it looks like you've implemented your Google Analytics code through Google Tag Manager, which is good. What's not so great is that we can't see the code in your container to help you troubleshoot - all we can see is the container.
Simo Ahava is an analytics wizard, and he put together a fantastic guide to help troubleshoot this sort of thing: https://www.simoahava.com/analytics/troubleshoot-google-analytics-9-step-program/
Follow that step-by-step and see if it helps you solve your problem. Best of luck!

Is it possible to move the GTM code higher up in your tag so it's right after it?

Everything has been checked and there has been no improvement in the bounce rate. Its still below 10%.
Could someone help us identify the issue.

Here you go with the URL.

Is the GA code in the recommended section of the page?
The Tag Assistant extension for chrome can sometimes help pick up on issues (though it can also be a bit buggy at times).
Fingers crossed you find a solution soon!
Cheers,
Casey

Is the GA code in a pop-up or pop-under?

High bounce rates consistent with a login that takes you to a 3rd party site?
My firm has a credit union client whose bounce rates skyrocketed after implementing an online banking portal. Logging in to the online banking portal takes you to a 3rd party site. Would arriving at the site and immediately logging in be considered a bounce? And if so, would a high bounce rate actually correlate with a warm reception to their online banking tool?

Has GA changed how it calculates bounce rate?
Updated website from Magento backend to Wordpress and since the redeploy, my bounce rate has dropped from 40% to 4%. I did check to see if there was duplicate GA tracking code but only one call. I checked reports under "visitor flow" and one page visits seem inline with the previous bounce rate. Weird. Never experienced this before.

Why do I have a lot of direct traffic from MSN and Yahoo with 100% bounce rate?
For MSN I have about 8000 hits of one page and a 100% bounce rate. In the last month I have about 400 hits from Yahoo with a 100% bounce rate. Msn is all different pages, while Yahoo is all the home page. What would cause this?

Images Getting Indexed Making for Low Engagements Times in GA
I have quite a few images that are being indexed for popular search terms and are getting clicks. This site has a 0-10 second engagement of 69%. I would like to eliminate these images from the equation because I tend to think they are hurting my "quality score" in organic Google rankings. How do you keep these images from ranking? I suppose I could rename them. Should I disallow the images folder? I hate to do that, because some of my images turn up in local searches, which is good. I would rather keep those. But what is best practice? A little background info, this is a local service site. So the images that are ranking are coming up for a broad national type search. This has 0 value for the site. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated, Thanks! Kathy

Does an internal link inside an iframe result in a bounce?
We built a landing page with a wufoo form. Inside the wufoo form is a link going to another page on our website. We are wondering if clicking on that link will result in a bounce since it is in an iframe. We are using google analytics.
