1698 Nostrand Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The three-story, two-family house at 1698 Nostrand Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by Ming Wang, has a mixed history of pest-related issues over the past several years. Most recently, the building has shown no reported bedbug activity, with the most current bedbug report from December 2024 showing zero infested units for the monitoring period of November 2023 to October 2024, and no previous infestations reported in the prior monitoring period of November 2022 to October 2023.

This suggests effective pest control measures have been implemented regarding bedbugs. However, the building's rodent management history presents some concerns. A cluster of rat activity was documented between May and September 2018, with three separate inspections during this period showing positive evidence of rodent presence, though the building passed a subsequent inspection in November 2018.

Prior to this, a rat activity inspection in 2018 was conducted in July, and an initial inspection in October 2011 resulted in a passing grade. The pattern of rodent inspections in 2018, while ultimately resolving with a passing inspection, indicates a period requiring attention to vermin issues. It's worth noting that the building's age (constructed in 1905) and its designation as a two-family house are consistent with typical residential properties of this era in Brooklyn.
