Defiantly do the routine screening of the students in addition to the full screening of co-signer including the full credit /background check.Based on the description of the tenant issues you had and the fact that they were students I would suggest that you did not fulfill your responsibilities as a landlord.

Make sure the tenants know you will be checking on the property routinely. 

Do you send inspections to banks routinely as a requirement?

Additionally it allows for routine sprucing up of units, paint, fixtures etc.

So basically everything else is on the tenant.Are you asking to specify that the tenant must hire pest control on their dime on a routine schedule?

Liberty Management routinely conducts two periodic inspection surveys or more as needed of the property with interior pictures and send the reports to the owner.If this is going be a problem for you please do not apply for one of our properties.2.

And was glad to see them move out :-)For instance, I routinely ignored angry voicemails from tenants about how they could hear other tenants having loud sex. 

Contact me off forum, via email on my website, and I'll send it to you.In Alabama:The Agreement for Entry for Routine Maintenance and Inspection must be separate from the lease to be enforceable.The Agreement to Show During Last Four Months, without the need for notice or consent, must be separate to be enforceable.Other addenda must be separate, some I advise be separate, because they don't apply to all tenants.

Have you heard of the old . " Bait and switch routine"?

These two seem to be playing the I'm old and disabled so I do not have to - routine.
