There is no point in simply evicting and walking away if you can still go after her.If she is in on the scam she is already smoke in the wind but you should still take this to court for collections. $4000 is way worth your effort to try and collect. 

As Soh mentioned, make sure you read the local laws, use a standard lease for the area (often govt websites have one that you can then add anything to-eg no smoking).

Replace all the batteries in your smoke detectors and remotes.

Also, if any item fails the inspection (except safety items, like smoke detectors), the landlord has 30 days to fix them and there is NO loss of rent.Mike

What was in the trash bag, did you have to contact Airbnb, and did you have to fine them for bringing in a dog or smoking?
