Health inspections are a bad time for rodents or insects to come out from their hiding places, but in South Florida that’s what has happened lately. Several restaurants were hit with fines and shutdown notices after such issues.

Without naming the restaurants, one was in trouble for having a dead cockroach in plain sight. Then when the manager went to pick it up and walk outside, a few lives ones were spotted moving around.
A few pizza places used dough to make orders, and they had rodent bites in them. There were other locations that had rodent droppings mixed up in the dough.
For most commercial locations, rodents enter through openings under doorways. And since they can enter through the size of a quarter, having protection is more important than anything.
Rodents can eat through wood, plastic and even poorly cured concrete. To prevent them, using Ratshut is essential. Ratshut is a stainless-steel spine-backed product and an essential tool for maintenance and facility managers, pest control professionals, and garage door installers.
