Dear Residential Tenancy Oversight Assembly International:

 

Thank you for your emails of May 3 and 19, 2022, addressed to the Honourable Adrian Dix, Minister of Health, regarding a rodent infestation within a multi-family high rise building in Victoria, British Columbia (B.C.). I am responding on the Minister’s behalf.

 

Under B.C.’s Public Health Act, Environmental Health Officers at health authorities can provide general advice on identification and control of common household pests, such as mice. However, it is a landlord’s responsibility to maintain the residential property in a state that complies with the health, safety, and housing standards. Information regarding landlord/tenant rights and responsibilities around cleaning and maintenance may be found on the Residential Tenancy Branch (RBT) website at: Repairs & Maintenance - Province of British Columbia (gov.bc.ca).

 

With respect to pest control, you may find the following resources useful:

 

I encourage you to work with the landlord of the multi-family high rise building to resolve the rodent infestation. However, you also have the option of getting further information on BC Housing’s complaint resolution process on their website at: Compliments and Complaints (bchousing.org).

 

If the rodent infestation is not resolved to your satisfaction, you may wish to file a complaint with the RBT by phone at 250 387-1602 (Monday to Friday 9 am to 4 pm), or by email at HSRTO@gov.bc.ca. Additional support, information, and advocacy is available by contacting a Tenant Resource and Advisory Centre (TRAC) (https://tenants.bc.ca/) representative at the Tenant Infoline at 1-800-665-1185 during the following days and times: Monday 1 to 5 pm; Tuesday 1 to 5 pm; Wednesday 5:30 to 8:30 pm; Thursday 1 to 5 pm; Friday 1 to 5 pm.

 

Thank you for bringing this matter to my attention, and I wish you the best of luck in resolving this issue.

 

Sincerely,

 

Geneen Russo
