PEARL, MS (Mississippi News Now) -
Some residents of Pearl are fired up because of a bed bug infestation problem at their apartment complex.
Tenants say the problem has been going on for years at the Colonial Terrace Apartments, but why hasn't it been fixed?
We first reported bed bug problems at Colonial Terrace back in 2012. Now more people have called 3 On Your Side seeking help.
Gwen Roberson, was one of those calls. She showed us the furniture she had to toss because her apartment is full of bed bugs.
"They're everywhere crawling through the walls, crawling through my furniture," Roberson explained. "I had to throw my kids bed set out, I had to throw away my living room set."
She's lived at Colonial Terrace for 7 months and says the bed bug infestation is getting worse. Her son is now covered in bites.
"My son had been coming to me for a couple of months now with bite marks on him but I didn't realize what they were," said Roberson. "I thought they were mosquito bites."
Other tenants have also come forward and given us photos.
"They have sprayed my house three different times and I'm still infested with them," said one tenant.
