b"BED BUGSThe staff of United Apartments is committed to an effective and efficient response to tenants who suspect they may have bed bugs.Bed bugs are small nocturnal insects that live by feeding on the blood of humans andwarm-blooded hosts. Bed bugs are generally active only at dawn, with a peak feeding period about an hour before sunrise. After feeding for about five minutes, the bug returns to its hiding place. As soon as a tenant suspects that he/she may have bed bugs, they must contact United Apartments Office at (989) 772-2222 or place a Maintenance request immediately. United Apartments will notify an exterminator as soon as possible so they can be dispatched to the location to perform a complete inspection of the unit in question. Please note that should a tenant notify United Apartments on a weekend or holiday, a staff member will be contacted the next business day.If the exterminator finds that there are no bed bugs present in the unit, then no further action will be taken.The tenant is asked to continue monitoring his/her living space, and notify United Apartments immediately if there is further problems.If the exterminator concludes that bed bugs are present in the apartment, United Apartments will provide the affected tenants apartment with a detailed list of instructions for the removal and laundering of their personal belongings.
