Can a Wyoming landlord change the locks or shut off utilities?

Does this page cover repairs and mold?

No figures for repairs or mold are on this page. Both fall under the landlord’s duty to keep a home fit to live in and under the state’s own rules; read the Wyoming statutes and your local housing code before you act.
