577 Drew Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The two-family house at 577 Drew Street in Cypress Hills, owned by Humyun Islam, has experienced ongoing pest control challenges over the past three years. Most recently, in May 2023, a rat sighting resulted in health department intervention, with the DOHMH identifying violations requiring follow-up inspections.

This pattern of rodent activity is concerning, as evidenced by three inspections in 2023 (June 29, September 22, and October 4) showing rat activity, though the October inspection was classified as a monitoring visit. This represents a significant increase in rodent-related issues compared to earlier years, including a mouse sighting in October 2022 that resulted in an inspection showing no violations at that time, and a passed inspection in November 2022.

The building's earlier history from 2012 is more favorable, with an initial inspection performed on August 24, 2012, resulting in a passing grade. The current pattern of insect-related complaints and health department interventions suggests an ongoing pest management challenge, though it's worth noting that the most recent inspection in October 2023 was classified as a monitoring visit rather than an initial inspection. The property has undergone various inspections since 2012, with the majority showing no violations, though the 2023 inspections indicate a notable shift in the building's pest control status.
