Tenant, MA, Boston, Massachusetts, BadBug
Hi BP Landlord,
I have a prospective tenant whom is a section 8. She has three little kids, and currently lives in a shelter.
I really don't mind section 8 as some of them are good. I need to re-enforce the rule every now and then.
We have a concern about bedbug. My wife works in the medical field, and she used to volunteer around the community. She knows most people from/at the shelter carry bedbug.
My question is, how do you usually screen for bedbug? It is definitely expensive to remove.
Thanks,
-Chan-
