We started noticing that we were getting bit a couple of months ago. I had a disgusting experience when I was changing the mattress protector and saw a huge bed bug.

We notified the building and had two treatments that were supposed to help. Unfortunately, they didn't. We had to throw out a lot of furniture and spend a lot of money on dry cleaning. Not to mention the constant paranoia of something biting you.

I think it's nice that the building is trying to improve its image by renovatin

I went to check out this apartment today and the super explained that the suite he was about to show us was newly renovated. Walking through the building, I was impressed, it seemed nice...up to the suite, looked all brand new, new counters and then I got excited about the fact that there was a dishwasher!! So I opened it........I couldn't believe how many cockroaches I saw.
I've been paranoid and itchy all day and we're definitely NOT moving in to this apartment...the lord dufferin? more like

We moved in 2 months ago and after a few weeks started to see tiny bugs. Now we have realised there are cockroaches (fairly large) in the building. Our apartment is very clean and clearly the building is the issues. We have notified management and they seem to neglect the issue that the BUIDLING is infested not just single apartments. We have notified Timbercreek directly and they did not seem concerned at all which is a bit alarming. I'd suggest not living here, it is not worth the stress. So m

roach rage on 10/21/2011

We moved in a month ago and have seen cockroaches not only in our apartment but running around out in the hallway and in elevators too. We alerted management but are still waiting for resolution. We bought all kinds of poison and sealed up as many cracks and openings as we could, however the stress of knowing we are not alone in this "condo style" apartment is unnerving.

We've lived here in one of the lower floors for a year now. (June 2010 - 2011.) The lease is finally ending and we can't wait to move out.

Within the first week we were covered in bedbug bites. They had sprayed a few days before but it didn't hold them off for long. We have to replace so many of our possessions because they've been ruined by insects. Our sheets are covered in blood stains, the bed frame is coated in bugs and eggs, and there are bugs all over our clothes and curtains. We've h

Started noticing that I was scratching my foot and ankles alot. Then my legs, arms, stomach, I couldn't believe what was going on. This is the 2nd time that my apartment has been infected. The only thing that I can think off is that the apartment a few floors above mine got flooded a few weeks ago, and water entered my apartment via the ceiling. Also in the past was infected with rodents and still is with coroaches. I seriously need to move out. The building manager is ok and helpful but th

This building is the worst i have ever lived in in. This is FULL OF BED BUGS AND ROACHES and is under METCAP which is the worst management company. Would advise to stay away from this building.

I live in this apartment for about 6 months. LOTS of cockroaches. Keep coming. Manager is OK, but the whole building is in VERY bad shape. So far I requested and they performed 2 times fumigation, 2 times with gell. I purchased the big 2 liters of roach killer spray, and the powder. We filled all the wholes in the apartment. We tried a lot to get rid of them. But all in vain . This is the WORST apartment I ever lived in NA for the past 8 years. I am going to complain to municipality too.

I've noticed bite marks on my arms/back/legs for the past 3 weeks now. Nothing major, a couple every couple of days. Haven't seen a bedbug until I was on the computer one day and one fell from the ceiling right onto my keyboard as I was typing. I knew exactly what it was as I was currently doing research on the little pests. I found two more since then, again on the computer desk and the washroom.

I spent rememberence day turning my bedroom upside down cleaning/vacc

I lived in that building from late 2007 to mid 2009 and had numerous problems. First with cockroaches that kept coming into my apartment from the surrounding apartments and then in late 2006 I discovered bedbugs in my apartment. The building manager is a nice guy but M**cap is a very crappy company so I think his hands are tied when it comes to solutions concerning the bedbug problem. They hired an exterminator who knew nothing about bedbugs and came and sprayed a few times but that did nothing.

I am living in this building for 3 months. This is the worst apartment that I ever lived in my life so far. This place is crawling with cockroaches, luckily I haven't seen the bedbugs yet. I don't know whether The superindentant is overwhelmed by too much work or insensitive, he doesn't finish the service requests on time. You have to bug him for months for simple things. For 2 bedrooms, I pay $1150 for this place which is unlivable.

Don't ever move in here.

thanks on 02/25/2009

thanks so much for this advice--i was just about to check out this place tomorrow!

Ivan Rodinov on 12/20/2008

This is an apartment, about 200 unit, 14 stores.
Full with bedbugs. I have lived there for three months, staff brings some powder to treat the problem but it doesn't help. Luckily I was able to cancel a lease with them. Saving copy of maintenance requests is advisable.
Though, I would not recommend this bulging at all.

Looks like a real infestation, even seeing mattresses on balconies now!
