Massachusetts S2830 mandates bed bug infestation protocols for landlords and tenants.
Massachusetts S2830 requires landlords to address bed bug infestations in their properties and mandates tenants to notify landlords of any infestations. If a landlord has knowledge of bed bugs in a vacant unit or before a lease is signed, they must take action or the lease will be void. Tenants must notify landlords in writing upon discovering bed bugs and comply with extermination protocols. The Department of Public Health will prepare informational materials on bed bugs, and the executive office of housing and livable communities may issue related regulations.
