INSECTS, RODENTS, & ANIMALS NOT PRESENT

Inspector’s notes

OBSERVED DEAD BUGS ON THE FLOOR IN THE STORAGE ROOM IN THE FOOD PREP AREA AND IN THE INFANT ROOM. INSTRUCTED TO REMOVE DEAD BUGS, CLEAN, AND SANITIZE MENTIONED AREAS.

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.
