landlords, tenants, who pays for bed bug treatment, and other legal issues

What are my rights as a tenant? Who pays for extermination in rental units? (Also includes specific information on Chicago, Baltimore, New York; Boston; Washington, DC; San Francisco; Florida; Rhode Island; Vancouver, B.C., and links to information on the rest of Canada)

Do I have to tell my landlord / co-op board / condo association / residents of attached house next door?

Our landlord is not dealing with this problem. I know others in my building are affected. How can I organize my fellow tenants to pressure our landlord to get rid of the problem?


The landlord paid for regular PCO treatment a number of times, and I still have bed bugs. Should I give up?

I want to sue somebody. Where can I read about bed bug lawsuits? Can you help me find a bed bug lawyer?
