Bitten by Bed Bugs? Get Free Legal Advice
Suing a Landlord for a Bed Bug Infestation & Bed Bug Bites
The chances of making a successful disrepair claim against a residential landlord for bed bug bites will depend on whether a property was infested prior to tenants moving in. This will usually mean that one or more tenants are bitten within days of the start of their tenancy, making the infestation and its eradication the clear responsibility of the landlord.
Often the specific cause of the red marks disfiguring a person’s body may not be immediately obvious, and sometimes it is only after multiple tenants have been bitten at a rented property that a bed bug infestation will become apparent. The critical factor therefore is for tenants to notify their landlord at the earliest opportunity that their rented property is infested, and then wait to see the efforts the latter makes to resolve the problem.
