Subject: Urgent Demand for Immediate Garbage and Vermin Removal from Rental Premises — Beaumont, Texas [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Re: Demand for Removal of Garbage and Vermin Infestation from Rental Premises Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your immediate attention a severe issue concerning the cleanliness and hygiene of the rental property located at [Rental Property Address], which I currently occupy as a tenant. Despite my prior concerns and informal requests, the persistent presence of garbage and vermin poses a considerable threat to my health and safety as well as violates the terms of our lease agreement. I am writing this letter to formally demand that you address and rectify this matter with the utmost urgency. To provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the situation, I want to emphasize the following concerns: 1. Garbage Accumulation: The premises have become a breeding ground for piles of garbage, which are attracting various vermin species such as rodents, insects, and other disease-carrying pests. The accumulation poses serious health risks and compromises the habitability of the rental unit. 2. Vermin Infestation: The presence of vermin has significantly increased within the property over the last few weeks. I have personally witnessed rodents scurrying across the floors and insects invading the living spaces. This infestation has become unbearable, affecting my peaceful enjoyment of the rental property and compromising my overall well-being. 3. Hazardous Conditions: The garbage and vermin infestation not only create an unsanitary living environment but also pose potential safety hazards such as chewed wires, gnawed furniture, and contaminated food storage. These conditions not only endanger my personal safety but can also cause significant damage to the property itself. 4. Violation of Lease Agreement: The unsanitary conditions resulting from the garbage and vermin infestation directly violate the obligations outlined in our lease agreement. Specifically, Section [X] of our lease states that the premises must be maintained in a clean and habitable condition, which is currently being neglected. In light of these concerns, I respectfully demand the following actions be promptly carried out: 1. Immediate Garbage Removal: The accumulated garbage must be thoroughly cleared from both indoor and outdoor areas of the property. This includes garbage removal from the yard, common areas, and any other locations where waste has accumulated. 2. Professional Vermin Treatment: To address the vermin infestation, it is crucial that you promptly hire a licensed pest control company to conduct a professional inspection, eradicate the pests, and implement necessary measures to prevent their future reoccurrence. 3. Regular Maintenance: Establish a regular maintenance schedule to ensure that the property remains free from garbage buildup and potential vermin reinfestation. This includes proper trash management, regular cleaning, and effective preventive measures. 4. Reimbursement: Given the severity of the situation and the inconvenience it has caused, I request reimbursement for any costs incurred due to the garbage removal or any damages caused by the vermin infestation. Please provide clear guidelines for the reimbursement process. I believe it is in both our interests to resolve this matter promptly, ensuring a safe and habitable living environment as stipulated in our lease agreement. Failure to address these concerns within [reasonable time period, e.g., 7 days] will leave me no choice but to seek legal action, which may include termination of the lease agreement and seeking compensation for any damages incurred. I kindly request that you acknowledge this letter within [reasonable time period, e.g., 3 days] to confirm your commitment to resolving these issues. I can be reached at [your contact information] for further discussion or to schedule a walkthrough of the property. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I trust that you will take swift action and prioritize the health, safety, and well-being of your valued tenants.
