Recently California passed AB551 which addresses several issues about bed bugs. Here is a brief summary of the new legal requirements:

Bed bugs have become a challenging issue over the past few years. Many people believe that they are the result of poor housekeeping by a tenant but that is not typically the base. Bed bugs travel easily and are usually brought in from the outside, or travel from one unit to another attached unit.

Regardless of the source, the landlord is still responsible for eradicating the pests, which can take time and be a lot more costly than other pests. If the landlord can prove that the tenant was the cause then the landlord can bill the tenant, but proving the source is a difficult task. One of the most important things to remember with bed bugs is to act promptly if they are discovered to prevent further infestation.
