    What Constitutes Are Safe And Sanitary Housing?

    We (my children and I) live in a rental mobile home. I would like to know what should be covered under safe and sanitary housing. Let me describe our living situation. The trailer is infested with roaches, has holes in walls and floors, mold under kitchen sink, places where you can see the ground at wall/floor seams. There is insulation hanging down underneath the trailer, and holes in the duct work underneat that allows all kinds of animals to enter (like snakes, cats, mice, rats). We have brought these problems to the landlord. Nothing's happened. Live in Mississippi.

    What you have described is clearly not the definition of safe and sanitary housing. I suggest you write down your concerns, mail it to the landlord, return receipt requested. If the landlord still does nothing and you wish to continue living there (under safe & sanitary conditions) contact code enforcement in your county. I am quite certain your landlord will take care of your concerns quickly, as he will be given a time limit in which to comply with code enforcements assessment.
