304 - Premises not free of pests [s. 26(a)]
Observation: A) Minor fruit fly population noted in dishpit. General sanitation in this area pretty good, except for floor drain under sinks. Noted flies coming out of this area.
B) Significant fruit fly population observed at and around smoothie machine, behind smoothie machine at floor drains, and around adjacent handsink (under sink basin). Also noted to a lesser degree around floor of ice maker, possibly coming from floor drain/conduit under ice machine.
Corrective Action(s): Take apart and thoroughly clean the smoothie machine. Thoroughly clean grated floor drain behind smoothie machine, the floor drain under dishpit sinks, and implement fly control strategies to these environments as discussed. Discuss with Pest Control technician for addition advice for control purposes. Clean equipment and surrounding areas in a more aggressive manner as discussed to help reduce potential feeding and breeding opportunities until fly population is eliminated or significantly reduced.
**Keep in mind the breeding cycle of fruit and drain flies is quick, often two to three days so control efforts must be daily.
