I am currently a tenant of 2382 Hughes Ave, and last summer august 28, 2009(exterminated my home) I had a huge bedbug problem. I had never seen a bedbug before so for months before this date family and friends would visit and have these mysterious bites. It was not until my cousin went to the doctor and called me and said "you have bedbugs",I was so disgusted. My landlord is a slum lord, right before this incident my apartment was renovated for lead. This was my first full year in this apartment
, meaning the landlord has never had this building or the apartments properly exterminated. He also fails to tell people this of course when they move in. I made the landlord pay for the exterminator, but I had to pay to board my pets, send my children to a family member, and spent a lot of money washing all my clothes in hot water. These creatures are disgusting and many other tenants here have complained of these horrible creatures. I was under so much stress from this incident especially since they were biting my children and I had just had a baby. Luckily they never made it to his crib. I am writing this story to warn anyone about this building, the landlord does not care but I do which is why I am posting this story.I have had no problems since but I constantly live in fear that they may come back and financially I cannot afford for it to happen again. Unfortunately tenants just moved in upstairs to apartment 16 of this building and they had no idea until I told them. That apartment was infested a few months back I wish the best for them, but I believe that apartment was never taken care of. I hope my story is posted and people read it, BEWARE OF 2382 HUGHES AVE, I am planning a move sooner then later. No one should have to live in fear the way I do, money is an issue these days and who can afford to replace all their furniture these days. Luckily my sofa was saved and I have since bought mattress covers and covered all outlets with child shock protectors. Hopefully these precautions will help, good luck to anyone suffering this horrible problem.
