Recognizing Your Rights: California Landlord Tenant Law and Pest Control
Know Your Rights
As a tenant in California, it’s crucial to be aware of your rights regarding pest control issues. The state’s landlord-tenant law, specifically Civil Code 1941.1, mandates that landlords are responsible for maintaining rental properties in a habitable condition, including effectively controlling pests and vermin infestations.
Habitability of Rental Units
Under California law, rental units must be kept in a habitable condition, which includes being free from infestations of rodents, cockroaches, and other vermin. Landlords are legally obligated to ensure that the property is free from pests at the time of renting and throughout the lease duration.
Tenant Obligations
Tenants also have certain responsibilities under California law. It is essential to promptly notify the landlord in writing of any pest infestations and allow reasonable access to the property for extermination purposes.
