I amabout 3 months into a 2 year lease and found bed bugs abouta month and a half ago at the condo Im renting. The owner claims that the bed bugs were not there before we came, but we did not have bed bugsbefore we moved in soI think its difficult if not impossible to prove if:a) We brought the bugsthere b) The bugs were there alreadyc) The bugs arrived after we got thereSince I have a friend in the pest control industry I decided not to bother the land lord right away and just try to deal with the problem myself. Here is what we have personally done over the past month to get rid of the bed bugs:1) Sprayed the entire house 3 separate times. The cost of the chemicals at wholesale price was $70. Besides the cost spraying for bed bugs is time consuming and my wife developed anallergic reaction to the spray for which she needed to go to the doctor.2) Threw away our two year old mattress. It will probably cost $700-$900 to replace and weve been sleeping on an air mattress for the past month. We will continue to sleep on an uncomfortable air mattress until our lives are bed bug free.3) Laundered all our clothing and bedding twice.I estimate that this has cost us about $70.4) Sprayed bed bug foggers from HomeDepot twice.Cost for foggers: $60.In summary weve spent a substantial amount of time and about $200 + the cost of a new mattress to deal with these pests on our own and they are still around. My two questions are:1) What legal rights do I have to request that my Landlord take care of the problem? Is it his responsibility or mine? I dont plan on trying to charge him for the work/money I have already spent but it isobvious to me that this is a problem that needsthe help of a professional pest control agent that specializes in bed bugs. 2) Ifmy landlord does not or cannot rectify the bed bug problem am I entitled tobreak the lease withoutpenalty?Thanks for any advice you might have.
