So my question is do we have the right to kick up a fuss over this?
I reprint that part of the original post because, apart from Scotties response, we are kind of drifting off the main question.
Personally, I think you should be looking for some kind of rent reduction – at the very least – or even temporary accommodation until the infestation has been dealt with.
Contact your local council’s environmental health department to establish whether or not the unit is actually uninhabitable. Then contact the landlord, and failing any real assistance, Fair Trading.
Do you have a right to kick up a fuss? My oath!
