21-22 Rene Court, Queens, NY 11385

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 21-22 Rene Court in Ridgewood, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Janis Stahl, has experienced several notable pest-related incidents over the past decade. In September 2019, there was a cluster of three reported rat sightings within a two-week period, all of which were investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), though the cases were closed without any documented resolution.

The building underwent rodent inspections in 2017 and 2018, both of which passed, but in March 2020, bait was applied as part of a follow-up inspection. A significant development occurred in April 2021 when a violation was recorded regarding the failure to file the required annual bedbug report, though this violation appears to have been addressed, as subsequent bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024 consistently show zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units during their respective reporting periods.

The building's recent history, from December 2021 through December 2024, shows an encouraging pattern of successful pest management, with no reported bedbug activity over the past three years. The property has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance since the 2021 violation, with reports for the periods 2021-2022, 2022-2023, 2023-2024, and the most recent filing for 2024-2025 showing consistent zero infestation counts. The rodent monitoring appears to have stabilized following the 2019 incidents, with the last documented rodent inspection in March 2020 resulting in bait application, though no further rodent-related complaints have been recorded since then.
