Need your vacate spray sorted quickly?
Tenants and landlords just want one thing at the end of a lease: documented proof that the property is pest-free. We provide exactly that, supported by flexible scheduling and a deep understanding of Sydney real estate standards.
Tenancy rules in New South Wales are clear. A landlord cannot force you to pay for a vacate spray unless there is a specific reason, with the most common being having a pet on the premises.
If your lease included a pet clause, you almost certainly need to book a professional flea treatment when moving out. This applies even if you never actually saw a flea on your dog or cat. Flea eggs can sit dormant in carpets for weeks and hatch only when the new tenants arrive. We always recommend checking the exact wording of your lease agreement so there are no surprises during your final walkthrough.
Flea sprays are the main request for pet owners, but we also tackle other common household bugs that might cause you to fail a final inspection.
| PEST SPECIES | PRIMARY TARGET / HOTSPOTS | DESCRIPTION & TREATMENT APPROACH |
|---|---|---|
| Fleas | Carpets, floorboard gaps, tiled areas, and yards | Targeted flea knockdown focusing on both adult fleas and dormant eggs to satisfy pet lease clauses. |
| Cockroaches | Kitchens, laundries, empty cupboards, and skirting boards | Strategic residual treatments to ensure no hidden roaches appear when the new tenants open cabinets. |
| Ants | Window frames, doorways, trailing paths, and paving | Perimeter protection and targeted sprays to clear out any trailing ants around entry points. |
| Spiders | Eaves, courtyards, balconies, and internal corners | Webbing removal and residual spray application to leave corners completely clean for inspection. |
| Silverfish | Linen cupboards, wardrobes, and dark storage areas | Application of safe treatments to dark, hidden spaces where silverfish typically harbor. |
Do you need a flea spray if the house has timber floorboards? Yes. Property managers still expect that official certificate of treatment whether you have carpets, hardwood boards, or tiles.
Fleas lay eggs in the tiny gaps between wooden boards and along the edges of walls. We adjust our professional products based on your exact flooring type so the treatment works flawlessly without leaving any stains or residue behind.
Agents check specific things during a final walkthrough. We make sure every single one is covered. Here is what a standard vacate service includes:
Moving day is incredibly busy. We keep our side of things very straightforward and efficient:
Tell us your vacate date and confirm if you had pets.
The property must be empty. Cleaners and carpet steamers must be completely finished before we arrive.
Our licensed technician applies the required treatments inside and out.
We generate your official certificate on the spot.
Give the certificate to your agent and get your bond cleared without delay.
A handwritten receipt or a photo of a bug bomb will not get your bond back. Sydney real estate agents need formal proof from a registered business.
Our certificates include our official NSW EPA licence numbers, satisfying strict legal and real estate criteria.
We document the property address, date of treatment, targeted pests, and exact commercial products used.
We format our paperwork exactly how Sydney property managers expect to see it, stopping frustrating back-and-forth emails.
We provide flat, honest pricing for vacate sprays based on the size of the property and whether flea treatment is required.
The house needs to be ready before we spray. If you skip these steps, the treatment will not bind to the surfaces properly and may be washed away.
Follow these four simple rules to ensure a flawless pest treatment and bond return:
Remove all furniture, boxes, and rubbish. We need clear access to floors and skirting boards.
Finish all vacuuming, mopping, and carpet steam cleaning before the technician arrives.
Leave a key in a lockbox or arrange for someone to open the door at the scheduled time.
Allow two to three hours for the treatment to dry completely before walking through the property.
