Subject: Urgent Action Needed: Removal of Garbage and Vermin from Premises [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], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring a pressing matter to your attention regarding the deplorable living conditions at [Your Rental Property Address]. As your tenant, it is my right to live in a clean and safe environment, but the current state of the premises is highly unsatisfactory due to widespread garbage accumulation and the presence of vermin. I believe it is imperative to address these issues promptly to meet the legal and ethical responsibilities associated with maintaining rental properties. Therefore, I kindly request that you take immediate action to rectify the following problems: 1. Garbage Removal: The garbage disposal system at the premises appears to be dysfunctional, leading to a buildup of waste both inside and outside the designated trash containers. This situation poses health risks and attracts unwanted pests. I urge you to engage professional garbage removal services or make necessary repairs to ensure proper waste management. This will not only enhance the quality of living for all tenants but also avoid potential violations of health codes and regulations. 2. Vermin Infestation: Regrettably, the premises have become infested with vermin, including rodents, insects, or other pests. This poses significant health hazards and compromises the well-being of residents. To address this issue effectively, I request that you engage a licensed pest control professional to promptly exterminate and prevent the reappearance of these pests. It is essential to maintain regular pest control treatments to ensure a hygienic and comfortable living environment. Moreover, I kindly request that you provide me with a written plan outlining the steps you intend to take in resolving these issues. Additionally, please indicate a reasonable timeline for their completion. My primary concern is to regain a clean and habitable space as soon as possible, and your timely response will be highly appreciated. Please note that maintaining a habitable residence is your obligation as the landlord, as outlined in the North Carolina Residential Rental Agreements Act. Failure to address these concerns promptly may lead to the consideration of legal actions to protect my rights as a tenant. In conclusion, I sincerely hope that you understand the urgency and severity of the situation. We both have a shared responsibility to ensure that the premises are maintained at an acceptable standard. I trust that you will take immediate action to address these concerns for the well-being and comfort of all residents. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter, and I look forward to receiving a comprehensive response within [reasonable time frame, e.g., 7 days]. Should you require any additional information or if there are any challenges preventing you from fulfilling these obligations, please do not hesitate to contact me as soon as possible. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
