NYCHA has invested in improving its waste management infrastructure to address pest issues and enhance overall cleanliness in its properties. The focus has been on rehabilitating interior compactor rooms and basements.
- Interior compactor rooms in basements, often a harboring place for pests, are being rehabilitated
- These improvements aim to prevent infestations from starting in residential building spaces where waste is managed
- The upgrades address issues such as leaks and the presence of food sources that attract pests
