Nuisance wildlife and pest insects

Tupakkakuoriainen
The owner or titleholder of premises or an area is responsible for ensuring that the conditions remain unfavourable for rats and other nuisance wildlife and, if necessary, that nuisance animals in their area are destroyed. Insects sometimes end up indoors. Most of them are harmless to humans, even if their occurrence is annoying. Some of them are classified as pest insects that may spoil foodstuffs and textiles or even sting or bite people. Some insects may spread from one flat to another.
