minorCode MCO 188.590Pests

Official wording

The services of a licensed pest control operator shall be required when a facility has evidence of rodent or insect activity to the extent that rodent droppings are visible, or live insects are seen during an inspection. The facility shall maintain records of the pest control operator's services on file for inspection. (2003-Or-023, ? 3, 2-28-03)

Inspector’s notes

Observed rodent droppings in basement area where grocery items are stored. Person In Charge mentioned that they are currently conducting their own pest control. You hire a licensed pest control company.

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.
