A market in the Pittsburgh-area is under Consumer Alert after an inspection by the Allegheny County Health Department.
The CK Market Sharpsburg on North Main Street in Sharpsburg had 11 violations after an inspection on Monday, including two considered “high-risk”.
Those high-risk violations are due to evidence of a rodent infestation throughout the store.
Inspectors found containers of ramen noodles “adulterated” by rodents, “too many to count” rodent droppings inside the cabinet of a slush machine, in soda cabinet and under the bottom shelf of food shelves.
Droppings were also found on cans of Spaghetti O’s.
Two dead rodents were found under the slush machine.
Inspectors also found the outer door sweep on the storage room door was worn, allowing rodents to enter the facility.
Inspectors say pest control must provide services once a week, all areas with rodent droppings must be disinfected, all food adulterated by rodents must be thrown away and more.
The reason for the inspection is due to a change of ownership.
The Health Department says the issues must be resolved or the store will be ordered to close.
