Hi all...I just discovered that a unit two floors below mine is infested with roaches and rodents (unfortunately...and this is another conversation -- there are way over the number of allowed resident in this unit...and we have addressed that --however, this pets problem raises the ante, a bit).

The roaches are traveling up, and landing in the unit below ours...and then ours. Our neighbor, an exterminator who exterminates at the complex, said the owner has asked for services. And our exterminator will recommend regular continued service. But, I wonder whether the board can step in at some point, since this poses a health problem for other units?
