In this house there are two bathrooms upstairs and one downstairs. When I entered the downstairs bathroom, I noticed right away that there were ants everywhere, coming in from under the toilet. I took some bug spray from the cleaning closet and spent about 20 minutes spraying them and cleaning them up. However, ants kept coming in from under the toilet. I notified the home owner that the bathroom had a serious ant problem. He responded by asking if I would set off a fogger in the bathroom, plus another fogger outside near the crawl space under the house. I told him I could not set off the foggers because my family and I were just leaving the house to keep a reservation we had made. The owner said he would set off the foggers later in the day. When we returned to the house around 5:00pm that evening, I looked in the bathroom and saw the fogger on the toilet and numerous dead ants all over the bathroom, plus at least one dead cockroach. However, there were still many live ants in the bathroom and they were continuing to come in from under the toilet. I sent a message to the owner telling him that I was frustrated by the fact that I had taken this house because it had three bathrooms, but one bathroom was clearly going to be off limits for us. He asked me why the bathroom was off limits. I told him it was full of dead ants and cockroaches, covered in bug poison and ants were still coming in. At the owner’s request, I sent him pictures of the bathroom. He told me that I should vacuum up the ants if I wanted to use that bathroom. I responded that, as I had paid a hefty cleaning fee, I did not think it was appropriate to ask me to clean the bugs out of the bathroom, not to mention the fact that ants were still coming into the bathroom, and there was bug poison everywhere. The bathroom was neither safe nor sanitary, and no one would want their family using it. The owner said the issue was out of his control and if I was not happy with it, I could leave the house at any time. He did not offer any accommodation or make any further attempt to remedy the problem. We did stay in the house for the remainder of our booking, but we could not use that bathroom. During our stay we saw other cockroaches in the house, and I took pictures of them. I was astounded that the owner would rent his house out on VRBO as he must have known about the bug problem, and I was surprised that he would be so rude and belligerent when asked to remedy the problem.
