Bedbug problem in previous Apartment

By anonymous

Hi,

I moved out of my old apartment and my old aparment management is charging me for bed bug treatment and 3 weeks of rental charge which comes to a total of $1600. I had already informed the landlord about bedbug issue about 2yrs ago and then they cleaned up the place at that time but now they are charging me for another bedbug clean up as part of moveout clean up. They threaten to go to collection agency to make me pay the amount. Isn’t the clean up charge the landlord’s responsibility and what action can I take to stop getting my credit score getting affected as a result of this?
Thanks
