Controlling Pests (Pf)

Observed live rodent at the cooking line area. PIC provided only an old IPM report. Provide a current IPM report from a licensed pest control company. Monitor and minimized rodents.

Why This Matters

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.
