Moving out of a rental? Between the packing, cleaning, and checklists, it’s easy to overlook one important thing pest control. But if you want your full bond back, it’s something you shouldn’t skip.
Here’s why end of lease pest control matters, especially for Melbourne renters.
1. It’s Often a Lease Requirement
Most rental agreements include a pest control clause, especially if you’ve had pets. Agents and landlords usually expect a flea treatment or a full pest spray to ensure the next tenant walks into a clean, pest-free space.
Skipping this step could lead to bond deductions or delays in approval.
2. What’s Typically Included
A standard end of lease pest treatment from JLS includes:
-
Flea treatment, especially after pets
-
General pest spray for cockroaches, ants and spiders
-
Interior and exterior application, depending on property needs
-
Certificate of treatment for your property manager or landlord
3. When Should You Book It?
Pest control should be done after cleaning, but before your final inspection. That way, the treatment lasts through the handover and satisfies the agent’s expectations.
We recommend booking it at least 2–3 days before your final check.
4. Why It’s Worth It
End of lease pest control is a small cost that can prevent bigger issues. It shows your landlord you’ve taken care of the property, and it ensures a smooth, stress-free move.
Plus, with JLS, you get professional results without the premium price tag.
