| Local source | What it says | What to do with it |
|---|---|---|
| Durham Region Health Department | Durham's tenant fact sheet says tenants should tell the landlord, superintendent or property manager straight away, are owed written notice 24 hours ahead of entry, and that only licensed pest control companies should be used. | Get the method and follow-up plan in writing. |
| Property standards | Brock's property standards say exterior property areas must have well maintained lawns and control of weeds and pests, and must be kept free of anything that may attract or harbour rodents or pests. | The owner carries the duty, so owners and landlords should keep records of each visit. |
| Durham Region Health Department | Durham publishes health inspection results for restaurants and food stores through the Check&GO! Durham disclosure program. | Businesses can look up their own record before and after a treatment. |
| Landlord and Tenant Board | The Landlord and Tenant Board says a landlord must take steps to control pests such as cockroaches and mice and meet the standards set out in municipal by-laws. | Tenants and landlords should keep the pest company's visit records. |
