What is end of lease pest control?

End of lease pest control is a pest treatment (often required by landlords or property managers) carried out when a tenant vacates a rental property — most commonly a flea treatment if pets were kept.

I had pets — do I need a flea treatment?

Most lease agreements require a flea treatment if pets were kept inside the property. Our end of lease flea treatment is priced at $195 for units and townhouses and $220 for single and double storey homes.

How far in advance should I book?

Book as early as possible before handover — ideally 3–5 days before your final inspection. This ensures the treatment is complete before handover. Call 02 4954 3838 to book.

Can I upgrade to a full general pest spray for my end of lease?

Yes. You can upgrade from a targeted flea treatment to a full General Pest Spray ($165–$330 by dwelling type) for broader coverage — cockroaches, spiders, ants (internal), silverfish and more. It's a great option if you want a truly pest-free handover.

Do you provide a receipt or invoice for the real estate agent?

Yes. We provide a receipt and invoice for every treatment, which you can supply to your property manager or real estate agent as proof the pest control requirement has been met. Let us know the details when booking and we'll make sure the paperwork is right.

How long does the flea treatment take?

An end of lease flea treatment typically takes 30–60 minutes depending on the size of the property. You'll need to vacate during treatment and until all treated surfaces are completely dry — your technician will confirm the re-entry time.

Do I need to be present during the treatment?

No, you don't need to be present. Many tenants arrange access through their property manager or leave the property unlocked for the technician. We just need clear access to the internal and external areas to be treated.

What do I need to do to prepare for an end of lease treatment?

Vacuum all carpets thoroughly, wash pet bedding on the hottest cycle, clear all floor areas, and ensure the technician has access to all rooms and external areas. After treatment, vacuum daily for the following week to stimulate flea pupae to hatch into treated surfaces.

What if I didn't have pets — do I still need a flea treatment?

Check your lease agreement. Some leases require a flea treatment regardless of pets, while others only require it if pets were kept. If your lease doesn't require it, you may not need a flea treatment — but you might still consider a General Pest Spray for a clean handover.

Can I bundle the pest treatment with carpet cleaning?

Yes. We offer a Bundle & Save option that combines your end of lease pest treatment with professional carpet cleaning and a full bond clean — one booking, one team, everything sorted for a stress-free handover. Call us for bundle pricing tailored to your property.
