Tenant dealing with cockroach issue, says management won't fix it

One woman at the Mosaic Apartment Homes in Oklahoma City says hundreds of cockroaches have infested her apartment and management isn't doing anything about it.

OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) — A family is living with unwanted guests, cockroaches. They say there are a lot of them.

One woman at the Mosaic Apartment Homes in Oklahoma City reached out to News 4, saying hundreds of cockroaches have infested her apartment and management isn't doing anything about it.

Jannet Brock lives with her two kids, who are one and three years old. She says no matter where she is in the apartment, roaches are there.

She has even woke up in the middle of the night with them crawling on her, so she reached out to News 4 for help.

"We're buying Raid roach sprays, whatever we can do to try to get rid of the roaches, but they're just getting worse and worse, to the point where they're in the refrigerator, in the freezer," Brock said.

Roaches have taken over Brock's apartment, and she's finding them every place she looks.

"They're crawling on my kids, even my clothes," Brock said. "I take clothes basket to go do laundry and there's roaches falling out. I'm cooking food on the stove and there's roaches falling down on my food."

She has tried talking to management but hasn't had any luck. When her fiancé went in to talk to them, things got heated.

"My fiancé did it because he was watching the kids and she started telling him that because he wasn't on the lease, that he needed to get out the office," Brock said. "She didn't have to tell him anything. After that occurred, I went to the office and talked to them about the situation to see why was it that, you know, he had to get out. And she's like, 'you got 48 hours to leave.'"

News 4 tried speaking with management, but when we knocked on the leasing office door, they ignored us.

Brock has been served an eviction notice, but still wants a solution so no one else has to go through what she has.

"They wanted me to go because I told them I'm going to go to the news, I'm going to go to the Better Business Bureau," Brock said. "So, now they feel like, okay, she's a threat, we want her gone. Obviously I got an eviction notice. I have to leave. I'm fine with that. But they shouldn't rent these apartments out to other people and they have to deal with the same thing. No one should have to deal with that. Like it's ridiculous."

She has court July 29 for her eviction and hopes to shed light on the issues at the Mosaic Apartment Homes.
