This pest assessment checklist helps food businesses keep kitchens, food trucks, and storage rooms pest free through regular inspections. It guides teams to check for signs of infestation such as droppings, chew marks, nesting materials, greasy smears, footprints, unusual sounds, and odors. It also covers pest-proofing measures like fitted doors and windows, fly screens, and maintained insectocutors. Storage and hygiene practices are included: covering food, using sealed containers, keeping items off the floor, emptying and cleaning bins daily, cleaning spills promptly, and thoroughly cleaning hard-to-reach areas. Use this tool monthly and notify a manager immediately if evidence of pests is found.
