I doubt it and I am betting that there isn't one apartment complex anywhere in the world that doesn't have them! Call the office and ask them to spray - not only your apartment - but all the adjoining apartments as well. If they only spray yours, the little buggers only flee to another adjoining space that has not been sprayed! Good Luck to you and your "friends"!

I am a authentic landlord and estate supervisor in Los Angeles and will guarantee you that (as a lot of a bummer as this will likely appear), the owner isn't responsible to assist you to from your hire. If s/he's taking the correct steps to remove the roaches, he's doing his activity. It seems like you're going to be in for a few demanding situations on this condo and you'll constantly speak to him, however understand that he does not have got to assist you to holiday the hire. Maybe out of the kindness of his center, he would possibly, however I would not anticipate it. If he would possibly not assist you to out, possibly you would ask if you'll sub-allow your condo till the hire is up and you'll uncover a brand new position. Trust me, I have no idea many humans which might be keen on insects (esp roaches), however your fears are just a little severe and now not the owner's accountability.

First write a letter to your landlord stating the problem in the most respectful and professional way you can. In the letter give the landlord a reasonable date to fix the problem. Be sure to save a copy of the letter and send it return receipt requested.
If your landlord doesn't fix the problem in a reasonable amount of time then call your State Attorney Generals office and ask to be directed to the agency that regulates landlord-tenant relations. Describe the problem, ask for advice, and ask if there is a booklet or other publication that sets out the obligations of landlords (and tenants) in your state, as well as the legal remedies for any problems you encounter.

I did when I was in college. I lived in my apartment for about less than a month because I couldn't deal with all the various bugs that were making it into my "home" on a regular basis. I called non-stop about the bugs, had them come out and exterminate, and when that didn't alleviate the problem I collected bugs I killed in the apartment in a ziplock bag and gave them to the office, along with a letter explaining why I was leaving. They didn't contest it and I was out of there!

Boric acid , it is very effective when used properly for killing
cockroaches and most other insects.
You can also get a house lizard, they are natural enemies and will eat them. More information at http://tinyurl.com/ofxkk

Threaten them....... Take pictures of them and tell them you will turn them in for unsanitary and running the risk of disease.
