Bed Bug Problems in Arizona
Arizona is one of the few states in the nation, which has passed laws about how to address the bed bug problem.
If you suspect your apartment has bed bugs don’t wait! There are very specific “bed bug rules” under Arizona law, which both the landlord and tenant must follow. Infestations may have already spread to more than one apartment, and your managers must bring in a licensed pest control company to assess and treat the problem.
Bed bug infestations spread rapidly. And contrary to popular belief, bed bugs are not just in big cities or emerging countries. If you are a renter in Arizona and discover a bed bug problem in your unit, the owner must address this problem.
Not sure if you really do have bed bugs? They can be difficult to spot, however there are clear signs. Take a look at one of our earlier posts on what these nasty critters look like.
