NYCHA Residents Demand Action on Pests and Mold | New York City News

Residents in Far Rockaway, Queens are sounding the alarm over dire living conditions in a NYCHA complex—rodents, cockroaches, and mold plague apartments where tenants like Eduardo Guarnieri, who’s lived there four years, say maintenance requests go unanswered. Fellow resident Bineta Diallo, raised in the building, echoes the frustration, describing pests despite keeping her home spotless and blaming NYCHA for neglect. While the housing authority admits $80 billion in repairs are needed and claims progress on lead paint, mold, and pests, residents feel ignored. Guarnieri still awaits fixes after submitting complaints, with no follow-up since NYCHA requested his work order numbers. The gap between promises and reality leaves families in unacceptable conditions, with no visible improvements on the horizon.
