A: Your landlord is violating the warranty of habitability. Take lots of pictures, if you are feeling sick due to the cockroaches' droppings and foul smell of the rats, go to the doctor. Do not forget to notify the management or owner of all your troubles. Ask them in writing to fix the problem. If they do not act within a reasonable time call a lawyer who deals with rats or rodent invasions. Best of luck.

A: You have problems that can be resolved with the help of a habitability attorney. Take pictures of your pest invasions, roof and windows leaks etc. Call the city for an inspection. If you are sick , go to the doctor and finally call an attorney.
