Verify approved smoke detectors before each new tenancy. Idaho law requires approved smoke detectors in every rental unit and a check that they work at the start of each rental agreement, and skipping it lets the tenant sue for damages or install detectors after 72 hours' notice by certified mail and deduct the cost from the next month's rent.
