bed bug problem in my apartment
By mammyspanx
I moved into an apt. building that has a bed bug problem. I know this because while I was moving in, other tenants were trashing everything they own (matresses, couches, chairs, clothes, ect…). I live on the top floor. I noticed bed bugs around the 2nd or 3rd month i moved in and immediately slammed my landlord with emails. Exterminators came…I cleverly asked how the units downstairs were doing and they said “theyre doing a lot now better actually”. Well thats great. Now I have the problem. I trashed my bed and a bunch of other stuff…havn’t been using the bedroom for a month. Had to buy a new mattress…to scarred to bring it in my apt just yet…

You really didn’t have to trash your mattress. You could have encased it and your box spring or foundation in bed bug proof encasements. If you don’t know where to find them locally you can order them here: pestcontrolcenter.com/store |

I am having problem in my rental home with bed bugs. I called the professional exterminators to take care of it; but only after I filed a complaint with the RPA. The landlord finally agreed to take care of the problem. |
