  • Pests/rodents
    1. Presence of fruit flies in facility. Fruit flies breed inside the building in a warm stagnant wet area. The fruit flies appear to be breeding in the drink dispenser and draught beer drains. Also appear to be breeding in the catch basin for ice at main ice maker. Suggest pouring hot water down drains at least 2 times a week. Pesticides are not an effective control. Sanitizer does not kill the eggs and larve either. Hot water will kill the eggs and larve. The adults only live for 2 weeks. When you see fruit flies sitting in an area there is probably a breeding area close by.
    Correction: Exterminate fruit flies using approved methods and elimination of harborage conditions.
