    Due to an extreme infestation of bedbugs, the same apartment has attempted to be cleaned 21 times, in four years, reports Home & Rent.

    Even so, the bed bugs have not disappeared.

    The first time the vermin was discovered in the apartment, which is located in Malmö, was the summer of 2018. Since then, Anticemex has made 21 attempts to clean the apartment, but to no avail.

    Now the situation is so serious that the landlord can no longer enter the apartment, according to the newspaper, and because of that, the 63-year-old tenant has now been terminated from his contract.
