Title: Demand Letter from Tenant to Landlord in Evansville, Indiana: Removal of Garbage and Vermin from Premises Introduction: Dear [Landlord's Name], I am writing this letter to bring your attention to a crucial matter concerning our rental property located at [property address] in Evansville, Indiana. Despite repeated verbal notices, it has come to my attention that the premises are infested with a significant amount of garbage and experiencing an alarming presence of vermin. I consider this to be a severe violation of our lease agreement, and I demand immediate action on your part to rectify the situation. Section 1: Description of the Issues 1.1. Garbage Accumulation: It has become apparent that a substantial amount of garbage has built up on the premises and surrounding areas. Discarded waste materials, including food containers, empty bottles, and other household refuse, not only compromise the hygiene and aesthetic appeal of our rental unit but may also attract various pests, amplifying the existing vermin problem. 1.2. Vermin Infestation: The presence of vermin, such as rats, cockroaches, or other pests, is intolerable and poses a significant threat to the health and safety of the residents. These creatures can contaminate food, harm property, and carry diseases, potentially causing harm to myself and other tenants. Section 2: Lease Agreement Violations 2.1. Noncompliance with the Implied Warranty of Habitability: Under Indiana law, a landlord is legally obligated to provide tenants with a habitable living environment. Substandard conditions due to garbage accumulation and vermin infestation directly violate this warranty. Failure to address these issues violates our lease agreement. 2.2. Health Code Violations: The garbage accumulation and vermin infestation on the premises are likely to breach local health and safety codes defined by the Evansville Health Department. As a landlord, it is your responsibility to ensure compliance with health standards for our well-being. Section 3: Demand for Immediate Action Considering the severity of the situation and the potential consequences, I demand that you take the following actions as soon as possible, preferably within [reasonable timeframe]: 3.1. Garbage Removal: Arrange for a professional garbage removal service to spotless the interior of the rental unit and remove any accumulated waste from the property. This includes the proper disposal of all garbage in and around the premises. 3.2. Vermin Extermination: Hire a licensed pest control company certified to handle the specific vermin issues present on the property. They should perform a comprehensive treatment to eradicate the vermin infestation effectively. Regular inspections and preventive measures should also be implemented to ensure a pest-free environment in the future. Section 4: Legal Consequences Failure to address these pressing issues within the designated timeframe may force me to take further legal action, such as reporting the violations to the appropriate authorities, filing a complaint with the Evansville Health Department, or seeking legal counsel to safeguard my rights as a tenant. Section 5: Conclusion I hope that you understand the urgency of the matter and the potential consequences of noncompliance. I trust that you will promptly address these concerns to restore a safe, sanitary, and habitable living environment as per our lease agreement. Please notify me in writing of the actions you intend to undertake within the next [reasonable timeframe mentioned in the demand]. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I look forward to a swift resolution and maintaining a positive landlord-tenant relationship.
