Per the Reporting Party (RP), the facility had rats, lice, fleas and termites.

The pest control receipt is from Ecola and is dated 9/6/25. The receipt shows that the facility is serviced monthly. Ecola treated the exterior perimeter for general pests, American cockroach and spiders. Under the section labeled Pest Activity, it read "None Noted."

Based on interviews conducted, there is no recent pest activity. 4 of 4 staff interviewed stated they have not seen any signs of pests or had any children share observations of pests with them. Staff 2 (S2) stated mice were present earlier this year but it was taken care of quickly and they have not seen or heard anything since. Staff 4 (S4) stated the last time they saw pests was about five years ago and it was taken care of quickly. Children interviewed have not seen pests at the facility. Director stated since Ecola came for the initial pest control for mice in October 2024, there have been no sightings or signs of pests.

LPA did a through walk through of the facility and did not note any signs of rodents or pests. LPA observed the empty lot located to the right of the facility on Riverside Drive contained few plants and dry brush.

RP did not state a time frame for the allegation. The facility is regularly treated and monitored for pests since October 2024. The facility is free of rats, lice, fleas, and termites at this time.

Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is Unsubstantiated.

One advisory note is issued.

Notice of Site Visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days.
Appeal Rights provided.
Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with Jeannine Pignotti.
