The sticky traps were not placed near the walls.
Recommendation: Remove the boxes in the dry storage.
- Utility Lines/Floors, Walls, and Ceilings
Observation: The fire system utility lines under the prep table are not sealed in a manner that minimize rodent harborage.
Correction: Exposed utility service lines and pipes shall be installed so they do not obstruct or prevent cleaning of the floors, walls, or ceilings. Floors that are of smooth, durable construction and that are nonabsorbent are more easily cleaned. Requirements and restrictions regarding floor coverings, utility lines, and floor/wall junctures are intended to ensure that regular and effective cleaning is possible and that insect and rodent harborage is minimized.
- Controlling Pests (repeated violation)
Observation: Mouse droppings were observed on boxes of food in the dry storage closet and on the floor near the fire system piping.
Correction: The premises shall be maintained free of insects, rodents, and other pests. The presence of insects, rodents, and other pests shall be controlled to eliminate their presence on the premises by eliminating harborage conditions.

- Equipment, Food-Contact Surfaces, Nonfood-Contact Surfaces, and Utensils/Clean
Observation: The hood baffles are not clean.
Correction: Nonfood-contact surfaces of equipment shall be kept free of an accumulation of dust, dirt, food residue, and other debris. The objective of cleaning focuses on the need to remove soil from nonfood contact surfaces so that pathogenic microorganisms will not be allowed to accumulate and insects and rodents will not be attracted.
- Refuse/Frequency/Removal
Observation: The outdoor trash receptacles are overflowing.
Correction: Refuse, recyclables, and returnables shall be removed from the premises at a frequency that will minimize the development of objectionable odors and other conditions that attract or harbor insects and rodents. Refuse, recyclables, and returnable items, such as beverage cans and bottles, usually contain a residue of the original contents. Spillage from these containers soils receptacles and storage areas and becomes an attractant from insects, rodents, and other pests. The handling of these materials entails some of the same problems and solutions as the handling of garbage and refuse. Problems are minimized when all of these materials are removed from the premises at a reasonable frequency.
- Floor and Wall Junctures, Coved, Enclosed or Sealed
Observation: The exposed pipe near the walk in freezer is not sealed.
Correction: The floors in food establishments in which water flush cleaning methods are used shall be provided with drains and be graded to drain, and the floor and wall junctures shall be coved and sealed. When cleaning is accomplished by spraying or flushing, coving and sealing of the floor/wall junctures is required to provide a surface that is conducive to water flushing. Grading of the floor to drain allows liquid wastes to be quickly carried away, thereby preventing pooling which could attract pests such as insects and rodents or contribute to problems with certain pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes.
- Controlling Pests
Observation: Mouse droppings and dead roaches were observed under shelves in the dry storage and on the floor under the hood.
Correction: The presence of insects, rodents, and other pests shall be controlled to minimize their presence on the premises by eliminating harborage conditions. Insects and other pests are capable of transmitting disease to man by contaminating food and food-contact surfaces. Effective measures must be taken to control their presence in food establishments.
- Cleaning, Frequency and Restrictions (repeated violation)
Observation: The floor surfaces under and behind equipment under the hood and in the dry storage are not clean.
Correction: Physical facilities shall be cleaned as often as necessary to keep them clean. Cleaning of the physical facilities is an important measure in ensuring the protection and sanitary preparation of food. A regular cleaning schedule should be established and followed to maintain the facility in a clean and sanitary manner.

- Controlling Pests (Critical)
Observation: Dead roaches were observed in the dry storage room.
Correction: The presence of insects, rodents, and other pests shall be controlled to minimize their presence on the premises by using methods, if pests are found, such as trapping devices or other means of pest control as specified under sections 7-202.12, 7-206.12, and 7-206.13. Insects and other pests are capable of transmitting disease to man by contaminating food and food-contact surfaces. Effective measures must be taken to control their presence in food establishments.
- Cleaning, Frequency and Restrictions
Observation: The floor area under the stove has old dry grease, needs cleaning.
Correction: Physical facilities shall be cleaned as often as necessary to keep them clean. Cleaning of the physical facilities is an important measure in ensuring the protection and sanitary preparation of food. A regular cleaning schedule should be established and followed to maintain the facility in a clean and sanitary manner.
