1627 Summerfield Street, Queens, NY 11385

The three-story, five-unit "Old Law Tenement" building at 1627 Summerfield Street in Ridgewood, owned by Milady Fernandez and constructed in 1931, has experienced several notable pest control challenges over recent years. Most significantly, in 2022, the building underwent an extended rodent control process, with multiple bait applications recorded between May 2 and May 31, 2022, following initial findings of rat activity in March 2022. While rodent activity was identified and addressed through these measures, a rat sighting complaint was filed with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene in April 2022, though the department referred it to another agency due to jurisdictional concerns.

The most recent rodent inspection in September 2022 was passed, indicating improved conditions. The building's pest control record shows consistent monitoring, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past five years, between 2019 and 2024, according to the bedbug reporting system. The property has maintained a pattern of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with all filings indicating zero affected units.

A rodent inspection in July 2022 noted initial rat activity, though subsequent inspections and bait applications suggest active management of the issue. Prior to the 2022 rodent activity, the building had demonstrated consistent compliance with health and safety inspections, passing all inspections from 2012 through 2017. The most recent rodent-related activity appears to have been resolved through the interventions of 2022, with no new rodent complaints or sightings reported in the following years.
