OBSERVED DEAD INSECTS IN AREA WHERE PEST CONTROL SERVICE WAS PERFORMED. INSTRUCTED TO CLEAN AND MAINTAIN AS A MEANS OF PREVENTING FEEDING OF OTHER INSECTS.
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.

In plain English
Dishes, equipment, or surfaces that touch food were not properly washed, rinsed, and sanitized, or sanitizer was not at the right strength. Clean surfaces help stop germs from spreading to food.

In plain English
Floors, walls, ceilings, lighting, ventilation, or garbage areas needed repair or cleaning. These are usually less urgent than food-handling problems but still need to be fixed.
