Thus, the inspector informed the operator that a more strengthened and aggressive approach must be conducted to address the infestation. This includes a weekly, at a minimum, inspection and treatment. Thus, please contact your pest control service provider immediately and request for weekly inspection and treatment for the next 4 weeks, and provide a service report to the public health inspector every week after every visit.
