minorCode MN Rule 4626.1565ABDPests

Official wording

Provide control of pests by routinely: • Inspecting incoming food shipments • Inspecting the premises for evidence of pests • Eliminating conditions that attract pests

Inspector’s notes

Observed rodent droppings under the front corner prep table and the front corner of the store front. Clean area. Regularly inspect the facility for pest evidence and report to pest control provider. Increase pest service, if needed.

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.
