375 Main st V6A-2S9(corner of Main and Hastings) The entire building is having roving outbreaks due to the managements "spray only as needed" approach. I was told when I moved in that there had been "some" problems. But that it wasn't common.

Last summer I was bit a number of times in the last week of exams. This caused a weeks worth of sleepless nights and uproar to my studies. I bought Zip-lock garment bags and spent a sum of money washing everything I owned in clothing, the emotional upset was nasty too. Was bug free after the fourth spraying for about a month when I started getting bit again.

1) The management while being very active to get a company in to spray had only recently started to spray adjoining suites. And usually you still have to ask. They are not pursuing a "quadrant" spraying approach.

2) Recently the management has started to be inconsistent with posting notices to enter for BB treatment

3) Recently the manager of this building was caught entering a suite with no notice, nor waiting until the tenant answered the door. The reason given was "I'd completely forgotten they were coming today."

4) There have been some issues or questions to the quality of the work being done by the PCO, and its adherence to proper spraying protocols.

1012 - 4th Street
New Westminster, BC


Have lived at this address for close to a year. We had some itchiness but were not aware that the the cause was bed bugs. Several tenants vacated their apartments all at once and we quickly found out that the whole building was infested. The landlord finally left a notice on our door that exterminators would be spraying our apartment twice (All has sent us in a real whirlwind with the preparation and huge inconvenience). We have found a new apartment and will be moving in a week's time. Forfeiting our damage deposit to landlord for not giving a month's notice of our intention to leave is a small price to pay to get out of this hell we're living in currently.

I asked the building manager if they had bugs when I viewed the apartment. He said the building had no bugs. The landlord called me 2 days before the first of the month to tell me that I can't move in until the 10th because they need to sanitize the apartment. I asked if there was an infestation and she said that the neighbouring suite has bedbugs and they're going to spray mine just in case. Then they called me on the 7th to tell me apt 203 has a severe infestation too, and that i couldn't have it until Aug 1st, but that it probably still won't be ready.
