Since March, her family member has been battling bedbugs that have infiltrated her unit, resulting in a rash requiring medical treatment.
"The problem is, they're not just in your bed -- they're in your couch, in your recliner, they're in your dressers," said Moyle.
"They are all over the apartment. They're on the walls. I'm talking because I witnessed it myself. It is disgusting."
Other tenants are experiencing similar ordeals. Claire Tremblay said it’s killing her.
"Everything is in garbage bag," said Tremblay.
"You could come and see if you want. I got nothing to hide. Garbage bag life. You know, I don't cook. Like, I'll zap up something in a microwave or whatever, but you don't even want to cook her or do anything."
