    Someone correct me if I’m wrong but it is the landlords responsibility to provide a clean habitable environment? I would probably pull a Karen and make them put you in a hotel while they fumigate, maybe get in touch with a local tenants union if there is one.

      Yea but tbh I'd rather just move than deal with all this hassle because certain things in this old ass building is in really poor condition

      Like the heater couldn't go past 72 degrees fahrenheit and I've had their maintenance people come in multiple times and change out multiple things, called the manufacturers for parts and none of it fixed it. I got tired of them in my place all the time and didn't want to deal with a full replacement of the heating system so I just bought 2 space heaters and I just leave them on all day cause they give me free utilities

        Oof yeah I feel that. My A/C is shit and it’s been regularly hitting 100 outside here. Maintenance has been twice to no avail. Thankfully my lease is up at the end of September.

          If it's affordable for you, my window AC unit works wonders and was very easy to install. 5000 btu 100 bucks for my 150 sq ft bedroom

          Just make sure it's tilted downward so condensation can drain

            Yeah all my windows have screens and are too wide to fit a unit even if I tore em off
