Spot it before
the guest does.

One cockroach in a guest photo can cost you a booking. The bug guide helps you and your cleaners check between stays, and a scan on the website names what you find, so you treat the right species.

A check that fits
into every turnover.

A short check between check out and check in.

  1. 1

    Look

    Mattress seams and headboard first, then under the sink and behind the fridge.

  2. 2

    Scan

    Anything odd, a bug, a shed skin or droppings, gets a photo. Scan it and Shoo names it, or match it in the bug guide.

  3. 3

    Act

    A plan for that species: free fixes first, then the products that work on it.

What guests
notice first

Each bug is a different problem. These are the ones guests notice.

Bed bugs They travel in guest luggage. Catching them early gives you the best chance of keeping it to one room. Read the guide German cockroaches Kitchens and bathrooms. They breed fast, so the first sighting matters. Read the guide Ants A trail to a guest's breakfast is an easy fix once you know the species. Read the guide Fruit flies Bins and fruit bowls left by the last guest. Read the guide

Each listing,
its own history.

Shoo Places will keep each property separate, so you can see which one has a problem and what was done about it.

Before you rely on it

Bed bugs: call a pro

A confirmed bed bug case in a rental usually needs a professional. The bed bug guide and a scan help you tell if it is one, so you can call a pro sooner.

Guests first

Bait and traps go where guests, children and pets cannot reach them, as the label says.

Your platform rules

Your booking platform and local law may say what you must do. Check them; Shoo does not replace them.

Questions

Can my cleaners use it?

Yes. Anyone can scan on the website in their phone browser: the first scan is free, and an email adds 2 more. Cleaner access, where their scans land in your account, is planned and marked Coming later.

Does Shoo prove a property is bug free?

No, and nothing can. It helps you notice early and name the right species, and the plan you email yourself is a record of what you found.

What does it cost?

Your first 3 scans on the website are free. Shoo Places will be a yearly plan; the price is set before it opens.
