Subject: Urgent Request to Remove Garbage and Eliminate Vermin from Rental Property in College Station, Texas Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to you as a concerned tenant at [rental property address] in College Station, Texas, regarding a pressing matter that requires immediate attention — the presence of excessive garbage and a growing vermin infestation within the premises. Firstly, I would like to express my appreciation for providing a comfortable living space thus far. However, I have recently noticed a significant accumulation of garbage in various areas around the property. The uncollected trash not only poses a health hazard but also contributes to a worsened living environment. The unsightly garbage is not only attracting pests and vermin but also emitting foul odors, which is becoming increasingly intolerable. Furthermore, I regret to inform you that we are facing a distressing situation concerning vermin within the rental unit. Persistent sightings of mice, ants, and roaches have become a daily occurrence, causing distress and negatively impacting our quality of life. These pests can transmit diseases, damage personal belongings, and compromise the structural integrity of the property if left unaddressed. As per the terms of our lease agreement and the Texas Health and Safety Code, I kindly request your prompt intervention to resolve these issues. Specifically, I demand the following actions be taken without delay: 1. Garbage removal: Please arrange for the immediate removal of all accumulated garbage on the premises. This includes addressing trash cans, overflowing bins, and any other areas where garbage has been left unattended. 2. Pest control services: Engage a reputable pest control company to conduct a thorough inspection and effective treatment of the entire premises for the complete elimination of all existing vermin. This should include sealing potential entry points and implementing preventive measures to avoid future infestations. 3. Regular maintenance and inspections: Establish a proactive schedule to prevent garbage buildup and enforce periodic inspections to ensure that the property remains clean, sanitary, and free from any vermin or pests. 4. Communication and updates: I kindly request that you maintain regular communication with me, detailing the actions taken to address and rectify these issues. This will foster transparency and reassure all tenants that their concerns are being adequately addressed. It is my sincere hope that you will accord this matter the utmost urgency it deserves to safeguard the well-being and livability of our rental property. Failure to address these grievances within a reasonable timeframe may compel me to explore legal remedies available under Texas law to ensure compliance with lease obligations and maintenance standards. I remain committed to maintaining a harmonious tenant-landlord relationship, and I trust that by working together, we can resolve these challenges promptly. Please provide a written response to this letter within [a reasonable timeframe] detailing the corrective measures you intend to pursue. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I look forward to a swift resolution and the restoration of a clean and habitable living environment.
