r years, therefore we must have brought in the bugs and then it was our responsibility to pay the exterminator. I immediately contacted the Department of Public Health and left a voicemail that evening. I eventually got a call back from management to say that the landlord had changed his mind, and would pay for the exterminator. At that point all other roommates were planning to move and I therefore terminated the lease rather look for new roommates during a bed bug infestation. It was over 3 weeks from when management was first informed of a possible infestation before the apartment was treated.
