Is it up to the Landlord or the Tenant to pay for Pest Spraying in NSW?

I was told from my Realestate that if i want to get my house and yard fumigateted for spider’s and other insects it is to be done at my own cost…. I have lived at other places and the Landlords had paid for it before and now i am just a bit confussed…

If its for preventative measures I would say its optional for the landlord to pay. If its for actual pest removal (i.e. spiders everywhere, roaches in the kitchen, flies all over, ants coming in the home, etc.) it would be the landlords responsibility.
