To maintain environmental hygiene, it is very common for restaurants to regularly set up rodent and cockroach control devices.  However, once a restaurant becomes “dog-friendly”, its pest and rodent control arrangements must be adjusted accordingly!

Today, let us share with you the [safety requirements for pest and rodent control devices]:

🛡️[Poisonous bait and pest/rodent-trapping devices shall be kept out of reach of dogs]

According to the licensing conditions, all poisonous bait or pest/rodent-trapping devices inside the food premises shall be kept out of reach of dogs.

🧐 Why is this necessary?

Prevent accidental poisoning: Dogs have a very keen sense of smell and are curious about objects on the ground.  Improperly placed rodenticides or poisonous bait may lead to dire consequences if accidentally ingested by a dog.  [Professional Tip] Restaurant staff can clearly indicate the names and ingredients of the poisons used on the bait boxes, so that in the event of an accidental ingestion, veterinarians can promptly identify the ingredients and provide effective treatment.

Prevent accidental injury: Mechanical devices such as traditional snap traps may cause serious injury if a dog accidentally touches or steps on them.

💡 A warm reminder for pet owners

While the licensing conditions provide protection for pet safety, owners should still stay alert when bringing dogs into unfamiliar indoor environments:

Keep dogs on a tight leash: Remember that leashes shall be no more than 1.5 metres in length inside the food premises.  Pay extra attention: Keep the dogs away from dark spots, wall corners, or gaps between tables and chairs to ensure their safety.

Let us follow the guidelines together to keep our furry friends safe while enjoying our mealtimes with peace of mind! Environmental hygiene and pet safety are equally important! 🐕✨
