We just moved here about 2 months ago, and after a slightly horrific few nights, we have found out the wall in our bedroom has termites. The apartment complex was notified twice, first when I noticed them one night, I called the emergency maintenance, no one called back, and second a few days later when I went to the office in person. The guy I spoke to was supposed to have someone come reseal the cracks in the seal of the window, but no one ever came. 2 days later the pest control guy came at my request and said it was termites. Now the complex is sending an actual termite company to fix the problem tomorrow. On another topic, my boyfriends job is relocating him any day now, and they aren’t paying for relocation fees. We still have 4 months left on our lease, so we’re going to end up breaking the lease and paying the re-letting fees which will amount to a few thousand bucks. In Texas, complexes don’t have to let you out of your lease if your jobs relocates you. SO, now this termite thing has come up, and Im wondering if its possible to use it to get out of our lease. Does anyone know what the treatment is for termites? How long does it take? I know poison isn’t good for anyone to be around, but how will whatever the treatment is affect my family? I have a 3 year old and a dog. Any serious advice would be helpful. Ive tried researching these things myself but I cant get a clear answer. Thanks!
