Multifamily Apartment Buildings
Bedbug911 has many clients that own or manage multi-family buildings. We are THE EXPERTS in bed bug eradication, and are the first company called when this problem appears in large buildings. Ask us for a list of our clients who manage thousands of apartments in the New York Metropolitan area.
When bed bugs are discovered in multifamily buildings it is of the utmost importance to attack and eradicate them ASAP. The insect tends to spread biologically and geographically from apartment to apartment at an alarming speed, usually traveling between apartments by going through the walls or via the hallways. What generally happens is that the adjacent apartments above, below, to the side and across, become infested, sometimes infecting the whole building.
When using our services, Bedbug911 will immediately inspect all units of the multifamily building and will supply management with a detailed list of the scope of work (at times, eradication runs simultaneously to inspection). Landlords, supers & management companies can feel confident that when we take the job, the results will be complete. We will come back again and again till no bed bug survives.
When Bedbug911 comes to the rescue, we take a total approach to the problem and do not treat the infestation as strictly an exterminating job. What differentiates Bedbug911 from all the other companies is the fact that we see the bedbug job as a comprehensive treatment and not just an extermination job. Call us so that we can give you details!

James F. McCarty of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reported Monday that
A law student has sued one of downtown Cleveland’s chicer high-rises, contending that bedbugs drove him from two apartments — and flying gnats from a third.
In his lawsuit, Joshua Bobrowsky said the blood-sucking vermin in three Reserve Square apartments left him with painful welts and months of psychological and emotional distress. He seeks $142,000 in damages.
“I couldn’t sleep,” Bobrowsky, 26, of Pittsburgh, said in an interview Tuesday. “It was just a very horrible experience. Life isn’t enjoyable anymore when you think that everything you own is infested with parasites.”
Another former tenant files suit over bedbug infestation

NASHUA – A former tenant of a downtown rooming house that was infested with bedbugs earlier this year is suing the building's owners, alleging that she suffered permanent injuries from bedbug bites.
Capricia Osirus, a former tenant of 23-25 Temple St., filed a summons in Hillsborough County Superior Court in Nashua last month alleging that the owners of 23-25 Temple Street Realty LLC failed to correct a bedbug infestation in her unit for more than six months in 2007 and 2008.
"The defendant, by and through its agents, servants and employees, failed to address the bedbug infestation in a reasonable manner," Osirus' attorney Laura Sheppard, of Westford, Mass., wrote in the summons filed in civil court.
Osirus, "sustained serious, severe, painful and permanent injuries," as a result of negligent handling of the bedbug infestation at the building, Sheppard wrote, adding that Osirus had been "caused and will be caused in the future to endure pain and suffering and loss of enjoyment of life."
The building owners could not be reached for comment Monday night.
In February, another former tenant, Richard Jebb, also sued the building owners and former landlord Mark Flint, alleging that Flint's shoddy handling of the bedbug outbreak had violated his right to quiet enjoyment of his unit.
Another tenant, Dale Evans, backed up Jebb's claim, stating that Flint was handing out bug spray to tenants rather than scheduling a professional spraying.
City code inspectors had already documented bedbug infestations in several units of the building at the time of the hearing, prompting Nashua District Court Judge Thomas Moore to continue the case and order Flint to correct the problem by the next court date.
Shortly after, building owners fired Flint, and police later charged him with embezzling rent money.
Jebb, who had been ordered to return to court with proof that his room was infested, lost his case the next month when Moore ruled he failed to prove it.
Monday afternoon Jebb said he had since moved out of the building. Angry at the outcome of his case, Jebb said he purposely never paid the withheld rent for the months he allegedly suffered bedbug bites.
