Controlling Pests (Pf)
I review pest control reports. Please be sure that staff is reading reports and making the corrections noted on the reports. reports should repairs going back a month or two. Also found some droppings in the retail area by the small bagged nuts and cookies. Please address this with pest control. Back room will need to be organized so that pest control can get along the walls to do a proper inspection.
Why This Matters
SEVERE CONTAMINATION: Rodent droppings carry 35+ diseases including Hantavirus (36% mortality rate), Salmonella (20% of cases from rodents), Leptospirosis (kidney/liver failure). Mice contaminate 10 times more food than they eat through urine and droppings.
Code Requirements
IMMEDIATE ACTION: Clean/sanitize all affected areas with 10% bleach solution. Discard ALL exposed food. Seal holes over 1/4 inch (mice) or 1/2 inch (rats). Remove food sources. Install bait stations. Professional extermination within 24 hours.
