3960 Bell Avenue, Bronx, NY 10466

The three-unit residential building at 3960 Bell Avenue in Edenwald, owned by Antoinette Trotman, has been subject to recurring pest-related issues over the past several years. Most notably, there are four open Class A Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021 through 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD, indicating non-compliance with mandatory pest management protocols.

The building has experienced multiple pest-related incidents, with the most recent being a June 2023 complaint about unsanitary conditions and pests, which was investigated by HPD but resulted in no violations being issued. Previous rodent-related complaints in February 2019 led to inspections that failed for "Other Reasons," and a subsequent complaint about rodent-attracting conditions was filed in that same month.

The building's maintenance history reveals a pattern of inadequate response to pest management requirements, as evidenced by the cumulative open violations regarding bedbug reporting. While some complaints have been closed without violations, the persistent nature of these issues suggests ongoing challenges with pest management compliance. The property's relatively recent construction date of 2001, while generally indicative of modern building standards, has not prevented these recurring pest-related concerns from affecting the building's habitability status.
