Title: Indianapolis Indiana Letter from Tenant to Landlord with Demand to Remove Garbage and Vermin from Premises 1. Introduction: [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, Zip Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, Zip Code] Dear [Landlord's Name], Re: Demand to Remove Garbage and Vermin from Premises — [Property Address] I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to bring to your attention a matter of great concern regarding the cleanliness and pest control issues at the aforementioned property. As the tenant, I strongly request your immediate attention and action to rectify the situation. 2. Description of the Issue: I have noticed significant accumulation of garbage and the presence of vermin within and around [specific areas, e.g., common areas, my apartment, dumpster area, etc.] of the premises. This situation has become not only an eyesore but also a threat to the overall living conditions and well-being of not just myself but all residents. 3. Details of the Problem: a) Garbage Accumulation: Despite my efforts to maintain cleanliness within my rented space, there has been a consistent buildup of garbage due to inadequate garbage disposal arrangements. Overflowing trash bins, dumped garbage bags, and scattered waste are now a breeding ground for insects, rodents, and other pests, creating an unsanitary and unhealthy environment. b) Vermin Infestation: Unfortunately, the uncleanliness has led to a noticeable increase in vermin activity within the premises. I have personally witnessed mice, cockroaches, and other pests, not only in the communal areas but also entering my living space. This poses a considerable health hazard as rodents and insects contaminate food, spread diseases, and cause property damage. 4. Legal Obligations: It is essential to emphasize that maintaining a habitable and pest-free environment is a legal obligation stipulated in the lease agreement, as well as under the laws of the State of Indiana. Negligence in addressing these issues may result in a breach of the lease terms and possible legal consequences. 5. Proposed Solutions: In order to resolve this matter promptly and ensure compliance with the aforementioned obligations, I kindly request the following actions be taken within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 7 days] of receipt of this letter: a) Immediate removal of all garbage, waste, and debris from the premises and designated dumpster area. b) Provision of adequate and regular garbage collections to prevent future accumulation. c) Thorough inspection and implementation of necessary pest control measures to eradicate vermin infestation. d) Regular maintenance and cleaning to prevent the recurrence of such problems in the future. 6. Request for Confirmation: Prompt attention to this matter is vital, and I kindly ask for your response within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 5 days] confirming the actions that will be taken to address these concerns. Failure to respond or take appropriate measures within the specified timeline may force me to seek further legal remedies, including filing a complaint with relevant authorities or seeking legal advice. 7. Conclusion: I believe that resolving this matter swiftly will not only benefit the current tenants but also safeguard the reputation and integrity of the property. I look forward to your prompt attention and cooperation to achieve a clean and pest-free environment that aligns with our mutual obligations. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.
