The apartments in the building are sprayed for pests at least 3 times a year. And I maintain a pretty clean apartment unit. However, despite my telling the landlord and super that I suspected I had bed bugs in my apartment months ago, and the combined efforts of the superintendent and myself, the problem still persists.

I don't believe I brought the problem on myself as I have been living here for 19 months or so, and the problem didn't start until the 1 year mark or so. I haven't brought anything new into the unit that might have caused the infestation, and I strongly suspect that another tenant in the building might have brought the problem into the building.

I can't sleep because of the bites, which is a HUGE problem for me as I work 75+ hours a week.
