Bed Bugs and Old appliances

Pros

Great neighborhood, charming old apartment

Cons

Outdated appliances, on-going bed bug issue. Land lords cheap out with the exterminator. He just sprays blindly and does not even search for them. I have requested heat treatment /or a k9 to come in and sniff them out, and have been ignored. Rent is getting raised for no reason too so I'm moving anyway.

Advice to the owners

You should spend more money on exterminators and update appliances.
