Subject: Urgent Notice: Request to Eliminate Garbage and Vermin from Premises ā Formal Letter from Tenant to Landlord [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Re: Demand for Immediate Remediation of Excessive Garbage and Vermin Infestation Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to formally and urgently request your immediate attention and action regarding the persisting issue of excessive garbage and vermin infestation within the premises of the [Property Address]. I have been residing in the aforementioned property as a tenant for [duration], and I regret to inform you that the current state of sanitation and pest control is highly unacceptable and poses severe health and safety risks to both myself and fellow tenants. It is my continuous responsibility to ensure a safe and habitable living environment, and I trust that you share the same commitment as a responsible landlord. As per the terms and conditions outlined in the lease agreement, it is the landlord's obligation to maintain the premises in a clean, sanitary, and pest-free condition. However, it has come to my attention that this duty has been neglected, despite my prior verbal notifications regarding the escalating issue. The main concerns that demand your immediate attention are as follows: 1. Garbage Accumulation: The property's designated garbage disposal area has been insufficiently maintained, resulting in the accumulation of overflowing garbage bins, scattered waste, and foul odors. This condition not only attracts pests but also represents a potential breeding ground for disease-causing organisms and an unpleasant living environment. 2. Vermin Infestation: Owing to the lack of proper pest control measures, our living spaces have been invaded by an alarming number of rodents, insects, and other pests. These vermin pose health risks, property damage, and the loss of personal belongings. In light of these grievances, I demand that immediate action take place to rectify this unhygienic and unsafe living condition. My requests are as follows: 1. Prompt Garbage Removal: Organize a thorough removal of all accumulated garbage, ensuring the provision of adequate and clearly labeled trash bins. Implement a reliable and regular garbage disposal schedule to prevent future overflows. 2. Professional Pest Control Service: Employ the services of a licensed exterminator to assess the extent of the vermin infestation and develop a comprehensive plan to eradicate and prevent any further infestations. Ongoing pest control management should be implemented to maintain a vermin-free environment. I kindly request your response to this letter within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 7 days] to discuss the proposed plan of action. Should we fail to come to a satisfactory resolution, it may compel me to pursue appropriate legal remedies to ensure my rights as a tenant are protected. Please acknowledge receipt of this letter by signing and dating copies provided. I will retain one for my records and expect to receive a signed copy from you promptly. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I trust that you will take immediate action to resolve these concerns and restore a safe and habitable living environment as legally obligated. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]Subject: Urgent Notice: Request to Eliminate Garbage and Vermin from Premises ā Formal Letter from Tenant to Landlord [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Re: Demand for Immediate Remediation of Excessive Garbage and Vermin Infestation Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health.
