Pest control companies are seeing call-outs for bed bugs soar. If you've got an infestation at home, is it your problem - or your landlord's? Here's what you need to know.
There has been a surge in bed bug reports since the deputy mayor of Paris sombrely announced 'no one is safe' from the blood-sucking creatures. Paris is grappling with a well-documented outbreak as experts warn things could be just as bad in London. Luton Council said it is fielding an 'alarming number' of calls to tackle bed bugs, while one pest control company told Sky News call-outs had risen by 17% in one month.
'If we determined that the bed bugs were there for more than five or six months, and the tenant moved in a week or two weeks ago, our report could be used by the tenants to claim the money for the treatment from the landlord,' Mr Manov said. Disagreements can also be addressed by going to the local council who can send someone to investigate. If they find the landlord is responsible, they will be forced to pay. Sometimes it is not clear-cut who should take responsibility, Mr Manov said.
