478 Myrtle Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11205

The three-story, two-unit building at 478 Myrtle Avenue in Clinton Hill, owned by Ell Ransk, is a 1930 vintage Old Law Tenement structure with a consistent record of bedbug reporting compliance over the past several years. The most recent housing maintenance code violation occurred in March 2023, related to the late filing of the annual bedbug report, though this violation was subsequently closed. Since that incident, the property has maintained an exemplary bedbug record, with the most current report for the period of November 2023 to October 2024 showing zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units.

This pattern of cleanliness extends back through multiple reporting periods, with similar results recorded consistently from 2019 through 2024, suggesting effective pest management practices have been implemented. The building's bedbug reporting history reveals eight consecutive years (2019-2024) of accurate reporting, showing no infestations occurred during these periods. The pattern of reporting indicates compliance with NYC Housing Maintenance Code requirements, though there was one minor lapse in timely filing in March 2023 for the period of November 2022 to October 2023.

Since then, all required reports have been filed on time, with the most recent filings in December 2024 and January 2024, covering the proper reporting periods and continuing the trend of zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units. The building has demonstrated good management practices with regards to pest control and reporting compliance, with the one noted violation being an isolated incident that has since been corrected. The consistent absence of bedbug infestations over multiple years, as documented in the official filings, suggests that the property is currently maintaining a pest-free environment for its residents.
