Apartment update!
5 years ago
With the help of users and legal reddit, we were able to force the hand of our apartments to call an exterminator and treat our apartment.
They sprayed less than a week ago, then again today. Yesterday they removed the baseboards from our apartment. We found hidden water damage in the bathroom, bedroom, closet, and kitchen that they had just covered with glued on base boards. (Insert link here when on pc)
The apartments are not going to have anyone else sprayed that doesn't complain (our neighbors above us to be exact).
We have been told by the exterminators the best thing we can do is just keep telling our apartments we have bugs until we move. He says it will probably be 2-3 more treatments before the ones actively living in our apartment dies, but with other people not spraying we will never be rid of them.
He gave us 4 sticky traps to put under the frame we picked up from goodwill for $60 (which took everything I've earned in commissions to move so far). We still need a new boxspring but we will already have a bedbug case to put around it when we do get one.
We still want to leave this place. We didn't have these kind of problems until this year, and the way it's been handled has cemented we would would literally want to live somewhere else for the $1200/mo we pay. They literally advertise this place for new renters to sign on for $960/mo (no they will not give us that price). Our lease is up September so we want to save up to leave about then http://prntscr.com/vutct9.
We know for a fact that they ARE NOT going to have apartments sprayed when they know they have a pest problem is reason enough to want to leave.
People are leaving box springs, mattresses, and other furniture in the halls (insert box spring pic in hall) by the dumpsters with "BED BUGS" written on it in english and spanish. A single mom broke her lease here to move and was in the office acting a fool today because they are trying to charge her more than the rent left to break her lease.
We want to be done with these bedbugs for once and all. We already have to pack our apartment every week (bedroom, living room, closets, empty dressers, wash EVERY piece of clothing and bedding that isn't vacuum sealed in bags) for him to spray any where there are carpet/rugs and baseboards (whole apartment except the kitchen and bathroom).
