[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Subject: Demand to Immediately Remove Garbage and Vermin from the Premises Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing as a concerned tenant at [address of the property] in Green Bay, Wisconsin. As you are aware, maintaining a clean and habitable living environment is both a legal obligation and a reasonable expectation for tenants. Unfortunately, I have noticed several ongoing issues on the property that require your immediate attention. Firstly, the accumulation of garbage within and around the premises has become a significant concern. Prominent garbage piles have formed near the designated trash bins, leading to unpleasant odors, increased pest infestations, and a potential breeding ground for disease. This unsanitary condition not only compromises our health and safety but also violates local health codes and regulations. Secondly, the presence of vermin, such as rodents and insects, within the property has become unbearable. Despite my efforts to maintain a clean living space, it is evident that these pests have established themselves due to inadequate preventive measures on your part. These infestations not only cause physical damage to the property but also pose health risks and may result in serious infections and allergies for the tenants. In light of the aforementioned concerns, I hereby demand the following actions to be taken immediately: 1. Immediate removal of all accumulated garbage from the premises, including the surrounding areas, to ensure a clean and hygienic environment for all tenants. 2. Implementation of a regular garbage collection schedule to prevent future build-up and mitigate the risk of attracting pests. 3. Prompt engagement of professional exterminators to effectively address the vermin infestation and implement comprehensive pest control measures to prevent their return. 4. Conduct repairs and sealing of any entry points such as gaps or cracks that facilitate vermin access to the property to prevent further infestations. I kindly request that these demands be fulfilled within a reasonable period of [specific time frame, e.g., 10 business days] from the date of this letter. Failure to address these serious concerns within the stipulated time will leave me with no choice but to explore further legal remedies available to me as a tenant, including the possible withholding of rent until these issues are resolved. Moreover, I believe that resolving these health and safety issues will not only comply with the statutory responsibilities of a landlord but also foster a more satisfying and positive living environment for all tenants. I hope we can resolve these matters amicably and avoid any further inconvenience, legal actions, or strained relationships. I am available for discussion at your convenience and can be reached at the contact details provided above. Furthermore, I request a written response acknowledging receipt of this letter and an outline of the actionable steps you will take to address these concerns promptly. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I eagerly await your prompt action to ensure that our rental property meets the necessary health and safety standards.
