Findings include: An observation conducted on June 4, 2025, at 10:45 AM in Resident 2's bathroom revealed a strong, musty urine odor. During an interview at that time, Resident 2's representative expressed concerns regarding the persistent smell of urine in the resident's bathroom. She reported that although the odor subsides temporarily following cleaning, it returns shortly thereafter. The representative stated that the recurring odor is unacceptable and affects the living experience of her family member. A follow-up observation at 1:20 PM that same day confirmed that the strong, musty urine odor remained present in Resident 2's bathroom.

Numerous dead black ants were trapped in the webs. A thumbnail-sized flying insect was observed on the upper left corner of the exit door, and a half-inch spider was visible on the exit window glass.
