Baltimore City Tenant Had Pest Control Without My Concent.

Hello All,

Just had an interesting text from my tenant. "There were a huge amount of roaches so I had Orkin come and spray you will have to reimburse me. They can come monthly." 

Highly  irrigated from this text as 1. This is the first I am hearing of an pest issues. 2. She says I "have" to reimburse her. 3. In the city its the tenants responsibility for pest control unless it is multi family which this is not. 

This tenant is low income for what it's worth. How would you proceed?
