332 Starr Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

The 6-unit, 3-story tenement building at 332 Starr Street in Bushwick, managed by 332 Starr Realty LLC, has a documented history of pest control challenges, particularly with rodent activity, spanning several years. Most recently, in 2025, there were initial inspections showing rat activity in March and December 2023, though the building passed a compliance inspection in May 2025.

The property has experienced recurrent rodent issues since 2021, with multiple inspection results showing rat activity, including a significant cluster of complaints throughout 2022. While the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) has conducted multiple inspections in response to these complaints, the pattern of rodent sightings and activity suggests ongoing pest management challenges. In addition to rodent issues, the building faced heating and hot water problems in November 2018, with emergency complaints filed for both the entire building and individual apartments.

These heating issues were complicated by inspection access difficulties, resulting in closed complaints without definitive resolution confirmation. On a positive note, the building has maintained a record of no bedbug infestations reported over the past seven consecutive years (2018-2025), with all recent annual filings showing zero affected or re-infested units. While the building has experienced various maintenance challenges, the absence of bedbug cases and recent successful compliance inspection suggest some positive developments in pest management and building maintenance.
