What to do with tenant who refuses to follow any rules? Leaving trash out

[Orlando Goodon]

I inherited these tenants and the expired lease they have is useless. No smoking policy, not trash policy. So I can't use the lease here. Already have evictions going, but in the meanwhile they are above the law and can do whatever they want while I'm still being held accountable to them? This is what is happening:

-Littering on my property ON CAMERA

-Harassing me by calling the city and making bogus claims about heat, then refusing to let city in, to see if its true or not

-When they call the city about one issue, they will rattle off a LONG list of things they should "look into". Clearly trying to get me in trouble. mentions things that happened before I even was owner.

-Response to me politely asking them to follow the city trash rules is cursing me out on camera and giving me the middle finger

So basically the tenant is saying that my house is actually theirs and they will do what they want and I can't do anything about it. They don't pay rent. They smell up the entire building with their smoke. Already lost a tenant who had allergic reaction and was sick for days. Other tenants have had to clean up after them and I get numerous complains from other tenants about this guy. Even people who live nearby complain as well.

Please tell me that eviction is not the only way to hold a tenant accountable? They can just do whatever and be the biggest nuisance and nobody can do anything? There is nobody for me to call? So until they are out, they are untouchable and can do whatever, short of violence or literally setting up shop on my front porch selling drugs? We are all held accountable. We all have to follow rules. Why are they not bound by any rules?
