Tool · written notice, all 50 states + D.C.
Write the notice that actually counts.
Nearly every bed bug remedy depends on the landlord having received proper written notice first — and the requirements differ by state in ways that quietly forfeit claims. Fill this in and it assembles a letter with your state's deadline, the sentences the statute expects, and the delivery method that protects you.

After you send it
The letter is step one. These four make it count.
Keep proof of sending, not just the letter
The receipt, the tracking number, the date. Photograph them. In several states the method of delivery decides whether liability attaches at all.
Keep a copy of exactly what you sent
Not a draft. The final version, with its date.
Do not throw furniture away
Discarded items cannot be inspected and disposal spreads the infestation. It also weakens a damages claim.
Diarise the deadline
Your state's clock is printed on the letter. Note the date it expires, and do nothing drastic before it does.
