Now that the weather is getting warmer, the flea eggs are hatching. The landlord has sprayed twice to no avail. He refuses to do any more. He is letting us out of our lease and returning our security. However, we feel that this situation was due to his negligence. We have damages now that wouldn’t have occured but for the landlord’s failure to disinfect the property. Our furniture is infested now and is ruined. Our mattresses are ruined as well. The landlord has refused to reimburse us for our loss.

Is there a North Carolina statute that would apply to this situation?

Thanks.
