Ijust moved in the building 1 week ago. I havent seen any bed bugs but the first few day smy girlfriend woke up with massive amounts of bug bites, Small red bumps all over her arms and legs the bites wwere ! to 2 inches apart from eachother. My appartment was very clean when i moved in the floors had just been sanded and polished, new paint job, and we spent a day cleaning befor we moved any furniture in. i went and bought a powder called result (indoor insect killer). I powdered my bed and the surronding floor area and vacumed it !5 minutes later. She has not had another bite since. I never got one bite, but strangely i never get bitten much by bugs. Don't know about this building many people say they have bed bugs. Also this powder i used was 25 bucks and after reading the hazerds it realy doesn't seem safe to humans. It said use on mattress but it also says " if powder gets on skin take off contaminated cloathing, rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15-20 minutes, call poison control center or doctor or further treatment advice." So i'm very skeptikal about having used this product on my mattress. The building realy needs to step up and take care of this problem.

call 311 and report it!!!! then send a registered letter via usps to the landlord/office. keep and paper trail and don't pay your rent until it gets fixed or put it in and escrow account with hdp!! tell everyone in the building to do the same!!

I found bedbugs in my apartment 2 days ago. and called the management several times they have not called back. I'm having an exterminator come tonight but if the management does not spray the building they are not going to go away. If u have bedbugs. Please we need to bug the management until something is done.

still having the same problems since the past summer, on and off. they only spray once a month but it is said that someone needs to come 2 or three times within a 2 week period for them to be taken care of. there are a hundred or so apartments in this building. it would be nice if this problem could be taken care of asap. i am paying rent for a place i cant live in or bring people to.

Many of the apartments are infested and the management does little about it!

Are you kidding me?
