Actually, it’s putting rent in escrow.
Yes, you can do that that, and as long as you go through the proper channels, your landlord cannot evict you.

In monst municipalities bed bugs are a health and safety concern. Your first step should absolutely be to call you tenants rights board or local health department to see if what your rights are in this situation.
If it is found that they are the concern of either party they will guide you through the process of escrowing your rent.
