Sure. The fact you are staying there does not prevent you from suing. Good luck.

What for? How were you damaged? Have you suffered severe and traumatic injuries? Have you gotten sick? If not, report them to the local health agency and move on with your life.

Yes, but you must show damages and a few bites would not be sufficient for much of a suit, if any.

Probably not, just discovering a problem doesn't cause the discoverer damage.

Yes, but what is your damage. You are not going to do very well without real damages. Law suits are expensive and you don't file suit over small matters.

Assuming that you got bitten and you can prove it came from there, yes.

The first step is generally an expert that can testify that the tire was defective. This is not an inexpensive proposition, so if no personal injury, I doubt you want to pay for this expense. Best option might be to have your insurance company cover the loss and let them decide if they elect to subrogate the loss. If personal injuries, speak to counsel.
