Pest Control

The underlying pest-control facts are covered in your Food Handler Certificate course: Pest Control. Review that there before continuing.

Operator-level responsibility

As the operator, document your pest-control program as part of your Food Safety Plan: your pest-control provider or internal inspection schedule, inspection frequency, what’s inspected (receiving areas, storage, waste areas, and perimeter), and how findings and corrective actions are logged. Keep inspection records on file — an up-to-date pest-control log is standard documentation an inspector will ask to see.
