I didn't mind paying the pet fee...it wasn't that much and I wasn't about to give up my pets so I paid it.

We were the same way about scorpions; in twenty years, we saw ONE outside of the Desert Museum.
There's a large LARGE black bug in Tucson (one of the borers) called a palo verde beetle. They sound like a tiny helicopter going by, and they resemble the palmetto bugs. Mosquitoes are pretty much everywhere, and I apparently wear a well-lit FREE BUFFET sign for them wherever I go.
It seems only fair to refund the pet deposit if there is no damage or the tenant has ameliorated any damage from the pets. Same as people deposits.

And that's not even counting the palmetto bugs & mosquitoes.
