Hi there,
I am renting a room in a house and I have noticed there is a bed bug problem in my room, I have addressed this with the landlord ( who just so happens to be a distant relative)and after he bought a few insect repellant sprays and told me he dosen't have this problem in his room (which just so happens to be directly next door to my room),
He seems to have dismissed the idea there is a problem at all.
Is there anything I can do, this is very distressing especially as I am not sleeping well and it would appear he thinks im crazy.
Thanks

Hello,
Thanks for sharing your situation with us. We can appreciate that this is a really distressing and uncomfortable situation.
You may want to read our Settlement.Org Who does the Residential Tenancies Act (RTA) apply to? article for some general information on what your rights are.
It may also be helpful to use this Web tool for renters with roommates: Sharing rental housing? for some additional information on what your rights are.
You may also want to contact the nearest Community Legal Clinic if you have difficulty addressing this issue.
The Toronto Public Health has a great deal of resources, fact sheets and information on rights and responsibilities in relation to a bed bug infestation.

I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
