Liqua-Tox II should not be used in areas where there is a possibility of contaminating food or food-preparation surfaces. Rats and mice are notorious for finding their way indoors. They can find even the tiniest crack in a structure and force there way in.
Try to locate as many entry points as possible and seal them with Stuf Fit Copper Mesh or Pur Black Foam.
Keep dumpster areas as clean as possible and keep lids closed when not in use.
Keep grassy areas mowed to eliminate possible hiding spots.
Place rodent bait stations near dumpster areas and along outdoor structure walls to kill rodents outdoors.
If a rat or mouse infestation already exists in a commercial kitchen the use of glue boards and/or snap traps will be necessary. Place the traps near areas where dropping have been found or near areas where rodents or rodent damage has been found. The use of rodenticides (rat poison or mouse poison) is usually inappropriate in indoor areas. A rodent could succumb to the effects of the bait and die in an area that is inaccessible causing a horrible stench, flies, maggots, roaches, and beetles.
