California AB 551 requires Twain Harte landlords and short-term rental hosts to disclose bed bug history and respond promptly when tenants report infestations.
Civil Code sections 1954.600 through 1954.605 govern bed bug disclosures for residential leases statewide. Twain Harte vacation cabin owners renting long-term must provide a written bed bug fact sheet at lease signing. They cannot show or rent units known to be infested. Once notified, landlords must engage a licensed pest control operator promptly. Short-term rental hosts under Tuolumne County STR rules face additional liability if guests report infestations to county code enforcement, since unaddressed infestations can become a Title 4 health nuisance.
Tenants may sue under Civil Code remedies, and unresolved infestations can trigger Tuolumne County Code Enforcement nuisance action.
