There was no problem during the first several months here.

(The state is NC.) Check with the State Health Dept. if they have any regs or guidance on this issue. If you have forced air heating/cooling, you may be sharing the ventilation with the lowlife tobacco-sucking addicts, hence the noxious toxic smoke entering your apartment. If so, you could fight back by injecting strong odors into the same system until the tobacco addicts get a clue. In the past I've used concentrated essential oils for such endeavors, such as Oil of Menthol, Peppermint, etc. Just a few DROPS will fill the system with a strong pleasant scent. For fun, you could dump an entire capful down the intake as you leave the apartment every day, then sit outside and listen to the maggots choking and complaining about the smell, even making their eyes water. LOL! You could contact a lawyer about filing a lawsuit. Some jurisdictions have statutes that prevent others from interfering with your "peaceable enjoyment" of your property, even if the actions of the other party are otherwise legal. Good one! Actually dumb as a rock.. Smoking in a building that is not smoke free is still legal in America. However, smoking where human beings are breathing is inconsiderate behavior. Keep on being inconsiderate, and we will keep on passing laws. And enforcing them. -- Bob Broughton http://broughton.ca/ Vancouver, BC, Canada "There is no rational, moral or economic argument for the continuation of the manufacture, sale or use of smoking tobacco." - Robert Starkey, http://smokefreerevolution.org/, 03/18/2007 |
