785 Seneca Avenue, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 785 Seneca Avenue in Ridgewood, owned by Janet Chen and constructed in 1930, has demonstrated a concerted effort to address pest control issues over recent years. The property has maintained a record of compliance with Housing Maintenance Code requirements, with three consecutive years (2022-2024) of being cited for not filing the annual bedbug report, though these violations have been closed. Notably, all three recent bedbug filings (2020, 2023, and 2024) reported zero infested units, with the most recent 2024 report indicating successful eradication of all six units.

The building underwent rodent inspections in 2016, 2017, and most recently in September 2024, all of which passed. While there were multiple bait applications for rodent control in 2014 (six instances), compliance inspections following these treatments showed successful control of the rodent issue. The property's pest management history indicates proactive measures taken by the management, particularly regarding bedbug control, with no reported infestations in recent years.

The most recent rodent inspection in September 2024 passed without incident, suggesting current conditions are being adequately maintained. The building's records demonstrate consistent monitoring and response to pest challenges, with particular attention paid to both bedbug and rodent control measures over the past several years. The property appears to have successfully transitioned from active pest control measures in 2014-2016 to a more stable condition in recent years, as evidenced by the successful eradication efforts and recent inspection results.
