October 20th 2011

I am once again inflicted with bedbugs.

Had my place treated 6 months ago, bought bedbug mattress covers for my mattress on my bed and couch, and they are once again back, and with a vengeance.

Will have to contact building management asap to find out how soon my place can get sprayed again.

Cannot afford to throw out my furniture it is just not in the cards for me.


I have lived here for 14.5 years. I have never had any problems with bed bugs or even heard of problems here.
The worse that I can recall is an ant problem in the Winter of 2009/2010. Building took care of that asap.

I have lived in this building for over 2 yrs and I haven't had any issues with bed bugs. I heard that the building across the street at 1 Homewood Ave has an infestation.

apt 301


i have lived in this building for 3 years now, in two separate units, and about to move into my third as i am downsizing. i have never experienced bed bugs in this building nor have friends of mine whom as well do. there are tons of residents whom have lived here for many a years now and i for one will continue doing so. elevators suck but that goes for most places. bed bugs, never an issue in three years...

I live at this address, and although I have not personally had experience with bed bugs, I have a friend in the building who has. The building response was quick and timely, helpful in supplying bags for preparation, etc. They were informative in answering questions, and only directed us to the exterminator when my friend had questions about the product(s) being used. My friend's apartment was treated on two separate occasions, as is the norm with this treatment, and has had no issues since.

This was over a year ago. I stumbles upon these other comments while searching for another apartment for myself recently and wanted to clarify that the building is well maintained, well staffed, and reasonable with their efforts and suggestions.
I highly recommend that if anyone has issues with bed bugs they look up information on how they are transported, live, and under what conditions. It is not necessarily the fault of the property, but of the person. sometimes used furniture, or used items house these critters. This was the fact for my friend who bought an older lazy boy off of Kijiji and it was the source of the bed bugs.
Although I am moving, it is not for lack of liking the building, in fact I would live here indefinitely if my employment allowed for this.

Apt 510,

We found out we were infected on April 21, 2010. We've only been living there since January 2010. I don't believe it was a major infection but they were relatively easy to find and identify.

The landlord was fast in getting the exterminator (came the next day) but did not mention that other units had them in the building (other building staff told us). They insinuated that we brought them in, despite the presence of bed bugs in other units and I don't believe they have or will

inspect the neighbors. They also did not provide us with the phone number for the exterminator they used despite us asking because we had questions for them.

Our general opinion is that they were not terribly concerned, either because they don't care (not likely given the fast response on the exterminator, the number/contact they seemed to have memorized) or that they have seen it many times before.

Apt. #302 April 06, 2010

We discovered an infestation of bedbugs in our bedroom in March of 2010 but bedbugs have been a probelm at this building long before that. The superintendent left this bit of news out when renting. It was only when we informed them of the horrific discovery in our bedroom / bed, that we learned that this has happened before in other units. Our unit was not fumigated before we moved in.

Not knowing any of this, we moved in and bought all new

furniture and now we have thrown out our brand NEW Queen size bed, sheets, blankets and pillows We had never had this happen before and did not even realize what was happening to us while we slept. The bedbugs were feeding on out blood and leaving blotches on our arms, back and legs.

We washed all our clothes and bagged them, covered our brand NEW sofa and recliner and dining set with palstic but we fear they may be compromised too; that's 1000's of dollars!

The fumigators have come twice and probalby will come again. We are surrounded by bag after bag of belongings, plastic covered furniture and a balcony filled with sealed boxes of our belongings ready to move out. We no longer use our bedroom and are counting the days when we can find a new place to live.

We are breaking our lease and moving out. We cannot live like this! We hope the landlord is smart enough not to try and enforce the few months remaining on our lease.

I strongly advise that anyone conidering to rent here to reconsider!
