Help! Bed bug infestation in newly rented apartment – what are my rights

When I moved in I found out baby bed bugs on my apartment and the hallway – they 100% don't come from my stuff as I lived bug-free in my previous apartment.
What should be done as a first step.
What are my rights?
Should I hire a lawyer ASAP?
It's their fault, I have videos and photos, I want my rent and deposit back and all infestation and accompanying expenses paid by the building maintenance company, is it possible?

  1. These don’t look like bedbugs to me, they look like Adistemia Watsoni, or Moderkäfer in German, a sign of mold or increased humidity, but not directly dangerous to humans afaik

  2. that’s not a bed bug. catch one and bring them to a specialist to find out what it is, then you act accordingly. no reason to involve a lawyer before you even know what it is
