Why This Matters
Mice produce 50 droppings daily containing Salmonella and hantavirus. Cockroaches carry 33 bacteria types and 6 parasitic worms. Rats spread plague and leptospirosis.
What Was Observed
Observed a small amount of rodent droppings on the left floor sides of the white upright freezer adjacent to the door to the hallway. Observed the back mesh door with a loose weather strip and a gap greater than 1/4" underneath. Per the manager, the back door is for the garbage area of the residential units and the food facility next door. Per the manager, the facility currently has regular monthly licensed pest control service. The manager provided a copy of the recent licensed pest control invoice/inspection report from 10/2/25.
