In the warehouse: observed approximately 15-20 rodent droppings on the floor against the walls, between pallets/shelving. Observed one deceased large cockroach. The warehouse opens into the kitchen. There are swinging doors dividing the two areas, but the doors are not able to be fully closed/sealed. Observed openings in the door as part of the door construction. PIC stated that since the 6/9/2025 inspection, no pest control service has been administered. PIC stated the warehouse was cleaned on Friday, 6/13/25. [CA] A food facility shall not operate when there is a vermin infestation or has evidence of that is not eliminated or has resulted in the contamination of food contact surfaces, food packaging, utensils, food equipment, or adulteration of food(s) that cannot be corrected. The food facility shall cease operation of the food facility immediately. The food facility shall remain closed until: there is no longer evidence of a vermin infestation; all contaminated surfaces have been cleaned and sanitized; and contributing factors such as cleaning, repairs, and the elimination of harborages have been resolved. Obtain pest control service, seal all openings/cracks/crevices, and sanitize all surfaces. FACILITY WAS CLOSED DUE TO EVIDENCE OF ACTIVE RODENT ACTIVITY. ***See notes below.***
In plain English
The inspector found mice, rats, cockroaches, flies, or evidence of them (like droppings) inside the business, or conditions that could attract them. Pests can spread bacteria to food and surfaces, so this is treated as one of the more serious findings.
