[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Demand for Removal of Garbage and Vermin from Premises Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention some pressing issues regarding the state of the premises I am currently renting from you, located at [Rental Property Address] in Oakland, Michigan. Firstly, it has come to my attention that there has been an accumulation of garbage and waste within and around the property. The smell alone is becoming unbearable, and it poses a serious health hazard to both myself and any other occupants of the building. I kindly request that you take immediate action to remove all garbage and waste from the premises as soon as possible. This should include arranging for regular waste disposal services and ensuring that appropriate containers are provided. Additionally, I have recently noticed an increasing presence of vermin within the building. This includes rodents and insects such as mice, rats, cockroaches, and ants. Despite my own attempts to address this issue, the infestation has not subsided. I firmly demand that you promptly hire a professional pest control service to inspect the property, determine the extent of the infestation, and take necessary measures to eradicate any pests present. It is essential to ensure a safe and habitable living environment for all tenants. As per my rights as a tenant, I remind you of your obligations outlined in the lease agreement and relevant state laws which dictate that you, as the landlord, are responsible for maintaining the rental property in a habitable condition. The presence of garbage and vermin not only violates these obligations but also creates unsanitary and potentially dangerous living conditions. Should you fail to address these pressing matters within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 7 days], I regret to inform you that I will have no choice but to take further action? This may include filing a formal complaint with the appropriate housing authority, seeking legal counsel, or potentially exploring termination of the lease agreement to protect my well-being. I genuinely hope that we can resolve these issues amicably and swiftly, without the need for any legal intervention. I kindly request that you acknowledge receipt of this letter within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 3 days], and provide a detailed plan of action outlining how and when these issues will be resolved. Furthermore, I look forward to your prompt attention to this matter. Please understand that maintaining a safe, clean, and habitable living environment is not only my right but also an essential aspect of your responsibilities as a landlord. Thank you for your immediate attention to this pressing matter. Sincerely, [Your Name]
