Trusted extermination services to keep your home, business, and customers pest-free
The empty apartment or house you are about to move into is the one moment you can guarantee a clean start — before your furniture, and whatever the last occupant left behind, share the same space. New York Exterminating inspects and treats vacant units so you never unpack into a roach, mouse, or bed bug problem. The work is led by an Associate Certified Entomologist (ACE) licensed in structural pest control, with K-9 bed bug detection available for total peace of mind.
Here is why timing is everything. The day before you move in, the apartment is empty, the cabinets and closets are bare, and every baseboard, void, and entry point is reachable. The day after, it is full of your belongings — and any pests the previous tenant left are now hidden among them and hard to treat. A pre-move-in inspection and treatment lets us reach everything while it is open, confirm the unit is clear, and seal it, so you start clean instead of inheriting someone else’s problem in your own furniture.
Of everything a previous occupant can leave behind, bed bugs are the one that justifies the inspection by itself. They can survive months without a host, so a unit that sat vacant between tenants can still harbor them in baseboards, outlets, and floor gaps. New York law requires landlords to disclose a building’s recent bed bug history — but a disclosure about the building is not a guarantee about your unit. A professional inspection of the actual apartment, including K-9 scent detection, is how you verify it is genuinely clear before you trust it with your mattress and sofa. Catching it while the unit is empty is infinitely easier than after you have moved in.
1. Inspect the vacant unit. Kitchen and bath voids, baseboards, closets, outlets, and entry points — with K-9 bed bug detection when wanted.
2. Treat with full access. We treat the open, empty space where every void and crack is reachable — far more thorough than treating a furnished home.
3. Seal entry points. Optional exclusion so the unit stays protected after you move in.
4. Document. A record of the unit’s pest condition — useful for tenants, landlords, and turnovers.

Because an empty unit is the one and only time you can treat and confirm it is pest-free before your furniture — and any pests it might carry — arrive. Once you move in, you inherit whatever the previous occupant left behind: roaches in the kitchen voids, mice in the walls, or worst of all, bed bugs. A pre-move-in inspection and treatment lets you start clean and avoid bringing a problem into your own belongings.
It is the single biggest reason to inspect before moving in. Bed bugs can survive for months without a host, so an apartment that sat between tenants can still harbor them in baseboards, outlets, and floor gaps. In NYC, landlords must disclose a building’s recent bed bug history — but a professional inspection (including K-9 detection) of the actual unit is how you verify it is truly clear before you trust it with your bed and sofa.
A thorough inspection of the empty unit — kitchen and bath voids, baseboards, closets, outlets, and entry points — identification of any current or recent pest activity, and a treatment of the vacant space while it is easiest to reach everything. We can also seal entry points (exclusion) so the unit stays protected, and provide documentation of the unit’s condition.
Much more. With no furniture, appliances pulled out, and clear access to every void and baseboard, we can inspect and treat areas that are impossible to reach properly once a home is full. Cracks, wall voids, and behind-cabinet spaces are all open. It is the ideal moment for both treatment and exclusion, and the results last because we are not working around your belongings.
Yes. For tenants, a documented move-out treatment shows the unit was left pest-free. For landlords and managing agents, a turnover inspection and treatment between tenants prevents a problem from passing to the next occupant and keeps you ahead of housing-code obligations. Either way you get documentation of the unit’s pest condition.
Ideally a few days to a week before you move furniture in, so there is time to inspect, treat, and — if anything is found — re-treat or confirm the unit is clear before the truck arrives. If you are closing or signing soon, call early and we will fit the timeline.
