Moved in to apartment and found out it had bed bugs but landlord doesn’t care.

By Christina

I have never had a bed bug problem in my life. We moved into our apartment back in august, and before we moved our stuff in we spent a few nights sleeping on the floor. I notice that after a few days,I had red bumps all over my body.. Severe bumps. I’ve been to the urgent care and the Derm to see if I was allergic to something… But I wasn’t. One day I found a bug crawling on me. Not cool. When I saw that, I looked and found more! I googled the bug to see what it was..it was bed bugs. The next day I called pest control and they came out and said it was in fact bed bugs. During their search they found out the bugs were not comin from us. They were coming from the walls in the electrical outlets and that we are getting the tip of the ice burg and this building has a bigger problem. He went to talk with the landlord and they were rude with him and cussed him out. They said it wasn’t. Their problem. It took 300 dollars for pest control .. I took it  out of rent. I refuse to pay the landlord it. It’s been 8 months. We are still dealing with the bugs on and off. And now another apt in our complex is using the same pest control bc they have the same problem. It won’t get better until the landlord treats all apartments. What do I do? I’m tired. I hate being home. I feel dirty and I feel like its a prison ere with these bugs.. And it’s not my fault!
