Mothers apartment has bed bugs. Landlord trying to get me to pay?

I'm not sure why the management would expect you to pay the bill unless you are a guarantor for her lease. Even then, I'm not sure they can do that. However, your mother is responsible for the cost of extermination. Bedbugs are not transitory like roaches; they are hitch hikers & were brought in by your mother or a guest.

If it was me, I would try and contact the last tenants, before your mom and see if they had the same bed bug problem.

I'm not positive, but if YOU'RE not on the lease or anything like that then it's NOT YOUR obligation. Also if she's RENTING an APARTMENT then I'm pretty sure that's managements responsibility. But I'm not positive so don't vote me best answer or nothing. Tehe.

Seriously. These little buggers are gross. I purchased a bed bug mattress protector as another defense. I purchased the cotton bed bug blocker mattress protector from Overstock.com. It arrived pretty quickly and i didn't have to pay tax. Hope this tip helps.

Your mom needs to check her lease. Pest control is often the tenant's responsibility and is stated as such in the lease. No he cannot make you pay but he CAN make your mom pay if stated in the lease as her responsibility.

If you're NOT on the lease, you have no contract with LL, and no legal obligation to pay rent or anything else Of course, you may have no legal right to be in apartment, also

Legally they can't. But if you called the exterminator then you have to pay. If the landlord called exterminator then either he or your mother have to pay.
