Subject: Urgent: Cleanliness and Pest Control Issues in [Address] Dear [Landlord’s Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a pressing matter regarding the unsanitary conditions and pest infestation that persist in the premises of [Address]. It is imperative that immediate action is taken to rectify these alarming concerns to ensure the comfort, health, and safety of all tenants. Firstly, I would like to draw your attention to the accumulation of excessive garbage and waste both inside and around the property. It has become increasingly evident that garbage disposal has been neglected, resulting in an unpleasant odor, unsightly appearance, and attracting various vermin and pests. This is not only detrimental to our quality of life but also poses serious health risks to all residents. Furthermore, the presence of vermin such as rodents, cockroaches, and insects has become prevalent. These creatures not only cause damage to personal belongings but also carry harmful diseases. Their proliferation is a clear indication that effective pest control measures are needed urgently. As a tenant, it is my right to reside in a safe and habitable environment, which includes clean and vermin-free premises. Therefore, I kindly request that you take immediate action to resolve these issues by: 1. Arranging for a thorough cleanup of the entire property, including the removal of garbage, debris, and any other sources that attract pests. 2. Engaging a professional pest control service to assess the extent of infestation, implement appropriate pest control measures, and ensure their continuous maintenance in the long term. 3. Properly sealing any access points or openings where pests may be entering the premises. 4. Implementing a routine cleaning and maintenance schedule to prevent future issues. I understand that every tenant has their responsibilities to uphold cleanliness, but it is essential that the landlord takes the lead in ensuring the overall cleanliness and hygiene of the property for the benefit of all residents. Neglecting these matters only exacerbates the situation and may lead to further problems or violations. Please be aware that these issues pose a breach of the lease agreement, specifically the landlord's duty to provide a habitable dwelling. Failing to take appropriate action promptly would result in a severe impact on living conditions, potential damage to property, and could potentially lead to legal consequences. I request a prompt response outlining your plan of action to rectify these concerns within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 7 days]. I look forward to receiving written confirmation of your commitment to resolve these issues effectively, as well as regular updates on the progress made. In the meantime, I kindly ask that you take any interim measures necessary to mitigate the unsanitary conditions while a comprehensive solution is being arranged. Please also provide me with contact information for the designated personnel responsible for overseeing these matters. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in addressing these urgent issues. I trust that you will take this matter seriously and act promptly, as it is the responsibility of the landlord to maintain the premises in a sanitary and safe condition. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Tenant’s Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Phone Number] [Email Address]
