What health risks come from living in filth?

Spoiled food, waste, pests and mold can spread germs and trigger breathing trouble. They can also lead to falls and injuries. Anyone who feels unwell should see a doctor, and a cleanup lowers the risks in a clear order.

Can a landlord require squalor cleanup?

Often yes. A lease and local housing rules usually allow a landlord to require a clean, sanitary unit. A tenant rights group or an attorney can explain what applies in a specific case. A cleanup team can often work toward a deadline.
