• The weather conditions over the last couple of years have seen the resurgence of spiders and other pests which were relatively absent during the drought.  The Owners Corporation is presently seeking quotes from reputable businesses to undertake a general pest treatment for the common areas of Sunrise Apartments.  This work will include the basement, stairwells, external surfaces, bin and other enclosed rooms and where practicable balcony spaces (eg. under gutters, etc).

    We expect the overall work to take two to three days.

    Balcony treatment will only be undertaken if:

    1. A resident is present to allow access
    2. The resident permits the work to be undertaken – noting some people have allergies, etc

    Some of the businesses have indicated that they can, at the Owner’s cost, extend the treatment to inside apartments while they are on-site.  The exact cost and timing has yet to be determined.

    We do know that, during an internal pest treatment and for at least 30 minutes afterwards a resident should not be in the apartment.  Further, it is desirable that treated surfaces (generally near ceiling/wall and wall/floor joins) should not be washed for about 2 weeks.  Similarly for the outside surfaces – windows may show streaking for this period.

    Please consider if you wish to have your property treated internally while we await quotes to be submitted.
