508 East 188th Street, Bronx, NY 10458

The three-unit, three-story building at 508 East 188th Street in the Belmont neighborhood, owned by Stacey White, has experienced several significant pest-related issues in recent years. Between July 2021 and October 2021, there were multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions and pests, including rat sightings and rodent-related concerns that resulted in at least one inspection failure due to rat activity. More recently, the building has maintained better pest control standards, with all rodent inspections from 2022 through March 2025 resulting in passing grades.

The building's bedbug reporting records from 2022-2024 show no cases of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation. The property has faced several violations and compliance issues related to maintenance and safety requirements. In 2021, there were multiple class A violations, including issues with required postings regarding carbon monoxide detection, bedbug reporting, and various safety notices in the public hall. There was also one class B violation for a broken light fixture.

However, all these violations have been resolved as indicated by their "Close" status. A notable complaint regarding water retention or drainage issues from July 2021 was recorded but resulted in the inspector being unable to gain access to the property. Since 2022, the building has shown consistent compliance with housing maintenance codes, including successful bedbug reporting and rodent inspection results, suggesting improved management of building maintenance requirements. All recent bedbug inspections from 2020-2023 show zero infested units, indicating effective pest management practices in the most recent inspection periods.
