Brunnings Surface Spray knows your corners better than you—how’s that for unsettling delight?

Because nothing ruins a cuppa like ants marching across your new benchtop

The day you move into your dream home, you should be wondering where to hang the fairy lights—not why there’s an eight-legged crime syndicate living behind your fridge.

One spray. Two litres. Zero unwanted tenants. The Surface Spray 2L bug defence system helps put you in control, fast. Because the only thing crawling through your fresh-start sanctuary should be toddler toes or pets on patrol.

What makes this a go-to for new homeowners?

The last thing you want in your new space is that ‘ick’ feeling—tiny bugs claiming territory now that the boxes are unpacked. But here’s the good news:

“It used to take me three evenings of traps, sprays, and endless sweeping. Now, one coat along the skirting and I sleep like a queen.” — Candeece, Strathalbyn gardener and accidental spider whisperer

It’s not just a surface spray. It’s a peace-of-mind spritz that quietly guards the corners, edges, and dodgy-looking crevices. One treatment puts an invisible shield across surfaces where creepy-crawlies sneak in—indoors and out.

Common entry points? This stuff already knows them

Think of the Surface Spray like a clever houseguest who figures out your bug situation before you speak. It settles in around:

  • Door frames they slip under
  • Window sills they clamber up
  • Pantry kickboards and cupboards they hide in
  • Outdoor pathways leading up to inside entry

Spotted one still alive? Let the countdown begin.

Within minutes, it’s lights out for most common household pests. Roaches, ants, spiders—consider them evicted. And unlike old-school bug sprays that choke the room and knock you flat before anything else, this one’s low-odour and simple to apply. A quick spritz, a little dry time, and you’re good.

For the moments that should have been wins

You know the ones—finally hanging your first indoor plant only to realise it's dangling above a spider’s holiday home. Or getting your herbs thriving on the windowsill, only for aphids to throw a dinner party. That’s the maddening part: you do the work, put in the care, and then that happens.

“It's the invisible things that keep a home feeling safe. Surface Spray makes me feel like I’ve done something protective—without going full ‘hazmat suit in aisle 5.’”

Let’s be real for a sec…

It’s not about annihilating an entire species or living inside a sterile glass cube. It’s about having agency in your own home—the right tools to deal with things when they arrive. No frantic Googling. No panic. Just, sorted.

Here's the bigger picture no one talks about

There’s a strange kind of freedom that comes when the basics are handled. No buzzing distractions. No sudden shrieks in the night (‘Babe! Something just MOVED!’). That type of comfort can’t be bottled—but this spray comes close.

Because controlling your space isn’t about obsessing—it’s about caring enough to keep the little things little.

Your home deserves that fresh-start feeling—without the bugs trying to sublease it

Light the candles. Open the windows. Style your space like you’ve always dreamed. With one simple spray, you make clear: this house is yours now—and the only guests that stick around are the ones with an invitation.

Catch you in the garden,
—Candeece
