Since your landlord has an obligation to maintain the unit as inhabitable you should let him know that you do not belive it is inhabitable due to the infestation and you will call local authorities to inspect to determine if you are safe with the fesces in the attic or he can remove the squirrels and clean the attic and you will leave it at that.
Is it landlords responsibility to get squirrels out of attic.
Squirrels can do a great amount of damage to a house very quickly.
If the mice and or squirrels got in because of disrepair then it is the landlord s responsibility to get them out.
If your lease doesn t say anything about you being responsible for dealing with vermin then it is your landlord s responsibility.
But if the mice and or squirrels were attracted by waste food or a messy home then it is your responsibility to get rid of them.
Try to get the answer to that question and you will know whose responsibility they are.
It depends on the root of the problem.
In the meantime i would certainly save the email you got back as it proves the landlord is not inclined to act.
I think the landlord is responsible for animal infestation of the premises generally but you may have to go to rent court and sue the landlord to get a ruling on that.
The act provides however that its stated various repair and maintenance obligations other than the corporation s responsibility for those to common elements may be changed in the declaration.
So why are mice and squirrels in your home.
