Bed Bug Infestations in Montgomery Village Apartments

In Maryland, landlords in Montgomery Village and Gaithersburg are bound by state law to rent out apartments that are safe and fit for human habitation. This means they must be free of bed bugs and other infestations. If apartment owners are made aware of an infestation at any time during the lease, they must act promptly to exterminate the bed bugs and remove the problem. Unfortunately, some Germantown and Montgomery Village landlords fail to live up to their obligations under the law. They rent out infested apartments or try to use cut-rate solutions to address an infestation.

The costs for tenants can be substantial. Bites from bed bugs can cause scarring and lead to infection and allergic reactions. Montgomery Village bed bug victims may require continuous care to treat the physical and psychological harm caused by an apartment infestation. Property damage costs can rise dramatically. Montgomery Village residents may be forced to throw away their mattresses, box springs, sofas and other expensive household items in an attempt to eliminate the infestation. The skilled Montgomery Village bed bug lawyers at Whitney, LLP can help victims fight back for the compensation they deserve.

Montgomery Village Hotels and Bed Bug Bites

Hotel owners in Montgomery Village and throughout the state of Maryland are also responsible under state law for providing clean, safe accommodations to guests that are free of bed bugs and other infestations. However, hotel guests may settle in for the night only to awaken in the morning to find themselves dotted with red, itchy, painful bug bites. They may require emergency care for their bites as well as ongoing treatment for the long-term effects of a hotel infestation.

Even more, tourists and business travelers in Montgomery Village may find themselves facing more than a ruined vacation. They may be forced to leave behind suitcases full of clothing and other items, lest they bring the bed bug infestation back home with them. This can rapidly add up to thousands of dollars in property costs.

Health Problems Linked to Montgomery Village Bed Bug Infestations

Bites from bed bugs are red and itchy. These are not the only problems caused by bed bugs in Montgomery Village hotels and apartments, however. Some serious health consequences can be caused by bedbugs, including the following:

Skin infections – Because bed bug bites itch, victims in Montgomery Village may scratch, even unconsciously or during sleep. Bacteria can enter through these scratches and lead to severe infections like cellulitis, which can require inpatient hospital treatment with high-powered antibiotics.
Allergic reactions – Many people do not know they are allergic to bed bugs until they discover an anaphylactic response to a bite. Victims may experience hives, swelling and difficulty breathing. Anaphylaxis is life-threatening and can require hospitalization.

Bed bug infestations are also linked to an increased risk of anxiety and depression, especially because the insects can be difficult to eliminate and lead to social isolation.
