1119 Decatur Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207

1119 Decatur Street is a two-family residential building located in Bushwick, constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Eitan Itah. The property has experienced persistent rodent issues over the past several years, with the most recent Service Request in April 2025 noting signs of rodents, following a pattern of similar complaints dating back to December 2023. The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) has conducted multiple inspections between 2021 and 2025, with the most recent compliance inspection in March 2025 confirming rat activity.

Baiting operations were carried out throughout 2024, with records indicating bait application in August (three instances) and successful initial inspections in April 2024, though these were followed by subsequent detections of rat activity. The building's inspection history shows a concerning pattern of rodent-related violations and required follow-up inspections. Notably, there was one indoor air quality complaint in November 2020 regarding chemical vapors, gases, or odors.

While some initial inspections have shown successful bait application or passing inspection results, the recurring nature of rodent activity and multiple service requests suggests an ongoing pest management challenge. The property has had regular DOHMH engagement, with inspections revealing rat activity in multiple compliance checks across various years. The most recent resolution in April 2025 indicates continuity of the rodent management process, though it references earlier complaints and directs to the NYC Rat Portal for inspection results.
