Below is a list of places that were inspected last week by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation.
Some places were issued a “follow-up inspection required” and were not ordered shut even though they had insect, or even rodent issues.
Recommended Videos
No places were ordered shut in Miami-Dade and the Florida Keys despite a rodent issue inside Canton’s in Homestead.
The department has discretion on which establishments are ordered shut and which are not, and it should NOT be that way.
All the places mentioned were allowed to re-open following an ordered cleanup and a re-inspection.
