The building interior and exterior will be periodically inspected for the presence of pests and preventive measures will be taken to avoid pests. If any pests are detected, integrated (nonchemical) methods will be implemented as the first control step, including sanitation measures, exclusion measures, and the use of traps.

This can be done by thoroughly cleaning and maintaining food service areas and break rooms, fixing leaking pipes and faucets, and altering landscape features to eliminate standing water. Exclusion: Cracks, crevices, and holes in the building envelope will be sealed. Traps: For insects and rodents, non-chemical baits (such as peanut butter) will be used to trap pests. No chemical bait for rodents will ever be used indoors. If chemical rodent baits are necessary outdoors, they will only be used as solid blocks placed in locked outdoor dispensers. No second-generation (single feed) rodent bait will be used...
