Hey guys, i discovered a bed bug infestation in my room 2 weeks ago, since then it’s been utter torture, my roommates and i have been fighting this little bastards, and are getting heat treatment wednesday, unfortunately, the landlord is trying to get us to pay for it, we don’t have that kind of money, have NO idea where the infestation came from(we’ve confronted everyone who comes over on a regular basis), and are moving out at the end of the month (it’s the end of the lease). Who is responsible for this, it started in my bed, but i have not been at the apartment in months, as i have been in and out of the hospital for surgery, PLEASE HELP!!!!!

My apartment has been overrun with mice. There is an infestation of some kind of biting insect. I have been bitten from head to toe and I am “freaking out.” The development of these subhuman conditions in my home occurred during my absence of four months. This is the second occurance – the first invasion also occured during my absence of 7 months. My roomate is unsanitary and has created an environment that has attracted and sustained a very large population of vermin, which has in turn caused an infectious infestation of what I believe to be fleas. The difficult thing about this situation is that the roomate causing all the issue is also my landlord. He doesn’t seem to see the severity of the problems and he refuses to fumigate because of his birds. I cannot afford to move at the moment. I did not create this substandard uninhabitable living envirionment. I am currently trapped in it. If one brings any of this up with him he says, “Dont like it? Move out.” I am the one covered and scarred (from previous onslaught) from bites.

I’m a property manager and have always seen judges ask tenants if there were bugs when they moved in. If not the judge has said, “well they’re your bugs”. Try to keep in mind it may not be the landlords fault. I’ve had tenants who are complete slobs, that don’t take out their trash, leave food laying around ask for the landlord to exterminate when it was them drawing the insects with their unsanitary behavior. Why would you expect a landloard to pay for an infestation you caused. Sleeping in a motel can give you a case of bedbugs. That’s not the landloard/owners responsibility. As a former renter myself I dealt with any bug problems, only ever had ants in the hot weather, without involving the owners. My suggestion to the owners depends on how long the tenants have been there and what type of property it is. Residential home where a tenant has been in residence over 90 days it’s the tenant’s issue to handle. Apartments are different as it could be one of the other tenants causing the infestation.

I’ve been living in this apartment complex for 2 years and found out couple months ago that i have bed bugs. What’s weird is that my sister who is sharing a room with me isn’t getting any bed bug bugs. I’m the only on that is paranoid about it. My mom who is in the other room did had bed bug bites but then for 3 weeks now she hasn’t gotten any bites. I’m wondering where did these pests come from? My bed is right next to a window and right under a vent. Is that the problem? I’ve been very paranoid about these bed bugs and don’t know what to do. I’m afraid to tell the landlord because we don’t have the money to pay for it. My mom is a single mother of two who works a full time shift to make end meets. Any advises?
