I live 4/Y and i don't mind it.So far no bed bugs. The building is decent, my apartment is at the 10 floor with a nice view. Some of the neighbors are stupid (i.e. can't figure out that garbage goes in the garbage chute, play music loudly, etc.), but you'll get that anywhere. In general, I'd say its mostly students, young and old business people, and families that are fairly new to Canada. The people that work there are friendly enough (i.e. the building manager usually says hi,and when I've had

This building is full of bedbugs. The entire building needs to be treated!!! Right now what Property Management is doing is treating only the apartments of people that complain. What about the neighboring apartments?? Some tenants are not helping either. They do not report that they have bedbugs or they try to eliminate them by themselves and do not say anything because they are too lazy to do the prep or because they will be leaving soon.
This building is a no no. Elevators alwa

In May of 2011 I found bed bugs in my apartment. I'm a pretty clean and careful guy, so my guess is they came in from a neighbouring apartment. I notified the landlord, TransGlobe, but the management is completely uninterested. They don't consider bedbugs their problem.

TransGlobe is definitely a slumlord and does not care about the tenants, who are treated as cashcows. I have asked to have repairs done and been ignored. I have complained repeatedly about a persistently loud neighbour -- for

Management is fully aware of the problem. Staff are required to expose themselves to bites in order to have the room cleaned. Nothing has been removed from the room which means that the eggs are always there. Naturally this means that the problem continues to exist.

I have moved into the building recently and have found bed bugs. landlords are fumigating, but tenants also need to take steps to prevent re-infestation and the ppl in this bldg are not the type i would count on to do this (low income, low education, drug dealers, etc etc... all the issues that come with cheap rent).

Don't Live at 392 Sherbourne St.

During October of 2010 I noticed grouping of bites on my arms and legs each morning. After researching what the bite looked like and felt like I was 99% sure it was bedbugs. Although the slum landlord tried to refuse me I called in a professional who confirm that it was in fact bedbugs. He also warned that the rest of the units in the would most likely be infested as well. After paying the exterminator out of pocket, the landlord tried to tell me that the prob

well ive been living at 392 sherebourne for about 5 years. and i have not seen a bed bug. what i do know is that some nutcase is obsessed with bed bugs in the building and constanly writing on the walls of the elevators about the building having bugs.

That is WAAAAY more of a problem than some bugs which I have never seen or others have never seen. since I've talked to many others about it.

since transglobe has taken over the buiding looks better, and if i have any issues I have told the

I lived in this building for 4 years on the 2nd floor. I finally got out ... numerous fumigations for roaches,being left without a 'super' for months which created a disgusting infestation (roaches everywhere!!)and I was told of bedbugs in an apt across from the'super's' on the main floor right hand corridor if your asking!
Roaches, bedbugs and Mice ... oh my!
A tenant told me they installed a garbage compressor a few years back which allows them to store garbage for longer periods of time b

Bedbugs are definitely back at this location. A year ago, with the major bedbug infestation going on, the building hired exterminator to spray the apartments that were complaining of bedbugs. Unfortunately the bedbugs just moved to adjacent units, since not all units were done.

Now, you can see bedbugs (or really small roaches - never bothered to pick one up) in elevators and in hallways, and bedbugs coming up bathtub drains (definitely bedbugs here - found/killed them in a bathtub).

My sister lived AT 392 Sherbourne St.in a nice apartment, until Transglobe took over. We all were under the impression they'd improve it, but their management sucks, and trying to get a hold of any of the upper management is a waste of time because they keep saying oh talk to this person, or talk to that person. Never ever stay in a Transglobe building. Nothing will ever get done for you! They're just a lot of talk, and no action!Not everyone can afford to throw down cash to get their apartme

I lived in Suite 812 for 2 years in 2006-2008 and had lots of problems - mice, roaches were on and off and bedbugs. I did get rid of bedbugs eventually, but it took perhaps 4-5 months to do that. The management was cooperative at that time, but back then this was not a Transglobe building. When Transglobe moved in, I moved out...

Lived in this building on 10 floor since Aug 2008.
no bed bug activity was noticed.Transglobe Property Management are terrible, no mail boxes on lobby, Many complaints from tenants related to property maintenance,and security issues.Provincial inspectors are dispatched to inspect properties and, if necessary, issue Work Orders to ensure premises are brought up to the provincial Standards.
The Super quit two Days a go.

My fiancé and I have lived in this building for 7 years. After the first year we started noticing roaches, but that's not very surprising anywhere in Toronto rental properties. MetCap (previous landlords) started regularly putting poison down; problem solved.

Flash forward to December 2008, Transglobe Property Management buys the building. within 1 month we have a roach swarm, and start seeing mice.

By June 2009 mice and roaches are brazen about being in hallways, foyer, laundry room. I t

Lived in this building on sixth floor since Aug 2006.

Jan 2007: Rashes started appearing, we did NOT know what was going on.

Feb 2007: Noticed bed bug in the mattress.
The then super swore that there was no other unit that had a bed bug infstation. Made us believe that we got it somehow.

The super got a pest management company sprayed something. Lots of bed bug were seen dead.

Nearly for 4 months no bed bug activity was noticed.

Aug 2007 Bedbug reappeared.

I live on the main floor and starting March I'm having problem sleeping in my bed because it is very itchy and I have marks on my body and my head, I dont know what to do, I asked a lot of people and they said its bed bugs or dust mites but I don't see anything, could the specialy mattress cover help??? I will try it and let you know, also, is there a spray or something to control this thing????

gabriel on 03/12/2009

I had bedbugs, cockroaches and mice while living in this building between aug 07 - aug 08. The problems were reported to the building management who would only spray one apartment at a time, letting the pests escape tp another. I was told to deal with the mice myself.

Transglobe sucks on 12/27/2008

Transglobe has a terrible reputation. They're the worst management company there is right now.

Might I suggest bagging some of the live bugs and sending them to the Drimmer brothers? Maybe if they know what they're dealing with they'll spend a little more money on their properties, instead of the executive lunches and all the free gifts they give to employees.

Kate on 12/27/2008

Bedbugs on the main floor and first floor so far. Tenants have reported this to management and they have done NOTHING to help tenants.

This building used to be owned & operated by Metcap Living, but in the last six months of 2008 they stopped doing any sort of preventative maintenance. The cockroaches & mice are out of control.

In December 08 Transglobe bought this building, along with number of other buildings downtown. Transglobe has a bad reputation as slum management. This month,
