108-68 48th Avenue, Queens, NY 11368

The 3-unit, 3-story residential building at 108-68 48th Avenue in Corona, owned by 10868 Realty LLC and constructed in 1965, has experienced several notable challenges regarding pest management and regulatory compliance over recent years. Most significantly, between August and September 2021, there were multiple rodent-related complaints filed with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), including both conditions attracting rodents and actual mouse sightings, though inspection access issues complicated the response.

These rodent concerns followed a pattern of similar issues, with failed inspections in 2014 and successful ones in 2012, according to older records. The building has also faced annual compliance violations related to bedbug reporting under Housing Maintenance Code regulations in 2021, 2022, and 2023, though these violations appeared to be administrative in nature rather than indicative of active infestations.

Encouragingly, the most recent bedbug reports from December 2023 and December 2024 show no infested units, eradicated units, or re-infested units, suggesting a successful resolution of that particular compliance issue. The property has maintained a passing rodent inspection record since the initial complaint investigations in 2021, though the building's history shows a pattern of pest management challenges requiring ongoing attention. The property has regularly filed its bedbug reports in accordance with HPD requirements since 2021, but the historical pattern of violations indicates some initial difficulty in maintaining compliance with this requirement.
