coffee addict: The landlord has the legal responsibility of getting rid of the bedbugs irregardless of how they got in. The tenant should withhold the rent until the landlord cleans it up and if necessary use the rent money that he is withholding to get an exterminator and/or file a housing complaint. Housing and the courts will uphold the tenants right to insist the landlord clean it up irregardless of its source and withhold the rent until it is done.
