A Tennessee woman is accused of taking the eviction process into her own hands when she wanted a family removed from her apartment.

Ervyana Davis, 23, is facing two counts each of felony child abuse and misdemeanor, court records show. She remains in the Davidson County Jail in Nashville on a $37,000 bond as of Sunday morning.

According to an arrest warrant obtained by local Fox affiliate WZTV, Davis was trying to evict a family, including a 4-year-old child, from her Nashville-area apartment but they would not leave. Davis tried to have cops intervene, but they referred her to the civil eviction process, the warrant reportedly said.

But instead of following the formal process, Davis went to the store and allegedly bought bug foggers. She then on Wednesday reportedly placed between five and 16 of the foggers and released them with the family still inside.

Per the warrant, the child began coughing, had a hard time breathing and had to be taken to the hospital for treatment. There were no reports of any other injuries.

The Environmental Protection Agency says no one should be inside a house or apartment after the fogger is released. People should stay out of the home for at least two to four hours after it is released. The EPA stated one bug fogger is typically sufficient for a 25-by-25 foot room.
