olney md - Olney, MD Bed Bug AttorneySkilled Olney, MD, Bed Bug Attorney

Located in Montgomery County, Olney, MD, is a comfortable suburban neighborhood around 20 miles north of the nation’s capital. Attracting a range of business and government professionals, Olney has a range of green spaces and natural activities while keeping close proximity to other busy suburbs like Rockville, Aspen Hill and Gaithersburg. It also attracts tourists who like to explore Rock Creek Regional Park, Lake Needwood and the Adventure Park. Around 9% of people in Olney rent their homes or apartments from individual landlords or larger property development corporations. 

While Olney can be a beautiful place to visit or live in, bed bugs can strike anywhere at any time. An infestation can break out at a roadside motel, hotel or apartment complex, and the results can be devastating for victims. While bed bug bites are often just itchy at first, they can lead to more troubling health effects. Furthermore, the property costs associated with the difficulty in eradicating bed bugs from Olney apartments and hotels can be dramatic. If you have been harmed by a bed bug infestation in Olney, the bed bug lawyers at Whitney, LLP will help you to fight back. There are no out-of-pocket costs to seek bed bug bite claims. Call Whitney, LLP at (410) 583-8000, or use our simple, secure online form to request your free initial consultation today. 

Whitney, LLP has recovered over $11,000,000 in compensation for our clients who are victims in bed bug cases. 

Olney Apartments With Bed Bug Infestations

Landlords in Olney and across Maryland are mandated by state law to only rent out apartments that are safe, clean and free of damaging bed bugs or other insect infestations. When Olney property owners are notified about infestations in their buildings, they are legally responsible for dealing with the problems by efficiently exterminating the insects or hiring professional help. Unfortunately, some Olney landlords breach their duties to their tenants, leaving infestations to grow and cause major damages. 

When bed bugs infest an Olney apartment, tenants will find that the bites are just the beginning of their problems. They could be forced to give up some of their most expensive, valuable pieces of furniture, like mattresses, sofas and box springs, because it is so difficult to exterminate bed bugs. If landlords fail to address the issue properly, they could even lose replacement property. 

Bed Bugs Found in Olney Hotels

Tourists and business travelers frequently visit Olney to explore nature and work at nearby offices. Unfortunately, some Olney hotel owners allow infestations to run rampant on their properties. Hotel guests could wake up in Olney with red, itchy bites all over their bodies. As a 

result, they will face ruined travel plans and a series of escalating costs. 

In addition to needing medical care for the effects of the bug bites, some travelers will need to leave behind their clothing and luggage sets. Otherwise, they could spread the infestation further and even to their homes. Hotel owners throughout Rockville, Aspen Hill and Gaithersburg are responsible for providing safe, clean rooms to all of their guests. They can be held legally accountable if bed bugs injure guests. 

Health Effects of Bed Bugs in Olney Apartments and Hotels

The itchiness and pain associated with bed bug bites are often immediately apparent. However, some more serious issues can develop as a result. 

  • Anaphylaxis: Bed bug allergies are real, but few people know they have them until they encounter a bite. As a result, they will experience swelling, hives and even difficulty breathing. Anaphylaxis can be life-threatening and require hospital care. 
  • Cellulitis and Skin Infections: Because bed bug bites are so itchy, Olney bed bug victims often scratch unconsciously or while sleeping. Bacteria can enter the skin through these locations and cause serious infections, some of which require hospitalization and intensive antibiotic regimens. 

Some Olney bed bug victims have had to deal with scarring from the bites. Many more have experienced emotional distress like anxiety or depression as a direct result of an infestation.
