- 0:05the most common types of
- 0:07creatures which come into our kitchens
- 0:10here malta are the ones
- 0:12presented here cockroaches ants flies
- 0:16moths these usually come with
- 0:19with the food itself same as beetles
- 0:24rats and mice these definitely don't
- 0:26come with food they come from the
- 0:28outside drain flies
- 0:31and birds to a much much lesser extent
- 0:35because the malta birds are quite
- 0:38controlled as i might say not all
- 0:42no now on this screen there are only
- 0:44insects but
- 0:46not all insects are of the same level
- 0:49of risk some of the insects are called
- 0:53ingress pests like one two and
- 0:56three four the others are
- 1:00stored product insects which means they
- 1:02come with the food
- 1:04this is normally found the indian meal
- 1:07is normally found in flour and cereals
- 1:09and seeds
- 1:11these are the type of weevils and
- 1:13beetles we find
- 1:14in flower and premixes
- 1:17which come from flowers and grains their
- 1:21life cycle revolves around
- 1:23the parent laying eggs the eggs hatching
- 1:27in their
- 1:27product and then end up having their own
- 1:31eggs and so on so forth the other ones
- 1:35come from the outside
- 1:36so for obvious reasons these which come
- 1:39from the outside and these which we know
- 1:41they can survive very well in drainage
- 1:43and sewers and dirty areas especially
- 1:46one too
- 1:48uh we're more concerned about them they
- 1:50were then we are concerned about the
- 1:51others for example
- 1:52drain flies we know they love humid
- 1:55spaces and
- 1:56you find them sometimes in drainage on
- 1:58the floor they eat the molds on the
- 2:00drains but because of that their feet
- 2:04are on dirty ground and then they can
- 2:07distribute
- 2:08certain pathogens but they are a much
- 2:11lesser extent of
- 2:12uh of a problem than they are the
- 2:15cockroaches and the flies
- 2:17on the top you can see mouse droppings
- 2:21in the middle there is rice for
- 2:22comparison of size
- 2:24and on the right there is red droppings
- 2:27like this if you ever see
- 2:30droppings you will identify them more
- 2:33quickly
- 2:34keep in mind that sometimes lizards do
- 2:38defecate very similar to mice so you
- 2:41they might confuse you but
- 2:43lizards are normally a shy creature they
- 2:46will not
- 2:48make a mess out of wherever they live
- 2:51mice do
- 2:52on the bottom part here there is a
- 2:55typical infestation
- 2:57of of beetles
- 3:01this is a picture i had taken personally
- 3:04and all these
- 3:05black dots are actually beetles the
- 3:08the bag on top of this literally ripped
- 3:10open when i
- 3:11pulled it up because it was
- 3:15riddled with holes from the from the
- 3:17beatles eating the plastic to get out of
- 3:20the
- 3:20of the product doesn't mean that the
- 3:22product came like that to the facility
- 3:25it means that they found a good grounds
- 3:28of breeding
- 3:29so it could be that the product came to
- 3:32this place
- 3:33clean but the place where it arrived
- 3:36it was already infected with this kind
- 3:38of beetles these beetles
- 3:40bored into the plastic to go in and then
- 3:42they infected the whole
- 3:44the whole bags of this product
- 3:48a good rule to keep in mind is that
- 3:51we don't use pest control
- 3:55to cure we should use pest control to
- 3:58prevent
- 3:59unlike in domestic scenarios where you
- 4:01put
- 4:02a mousetrap when you have a mouse in an
- 4:06industrial setup you put
- 4:08traps and controls before you have a
- 4:10mouse because
- 4:11you don't want them to come in so the
- 4:13best methodology is to have preventive
- 4:15measures rather than
- 4:17controlling measures which is for
- 4:20example
- 4:21if you if you don't want any creature to
- 4:24come in you should keep your doors
- 4:25closed
- 4:26that is a preventive measure or if you
- 4:28want no insects to come in from your
- 4:30windows
- 4:31you put a screen there so that air comes
- 4:34in
- 4:34but no insect comes in if you don't put
- 4:38preventive measures of that sword then
- 4:40you have to control it once it's in what
- 4:41to do with it
- 4:43so better to prevent than cure it's
- 4:45always cheaper actually
- 4:47always remember that when a creature
- 4:50comes
- 4:50in it has everything it needs to grow
- 4:53probably there's food because you're a
- 4:54food production
- 4:56environment there is shelter because
- 4:58it's a building
- 4:59and if you do not like to clean a lot
- 5:03the conditions will be very stable for
- 5:06for growth
- 5:09this thing here it's like a squeezer
- 5:12it's a part partly rubber here this is
- 5:14normally installed that
- 5:15doors when there is that tiny space at
- 5:18the bottom
- 5:19which insects or other creatures can cut
- 5:21under you put a one like that to
- 5:23close the space these are nettings which
- 5:26prevent insects
- 5:27from coming in from windows and whatever
- 5:31that can come from window practically
- 5:35that's an electronic fly killer
- 5:38this at the bottom is a mouse trap and
- 5:41that is a pheromone trap
- 5:43let's explain how these work this
- 5:46attracts
- 5:46flying insects by light
- 5:50there are two types of these one of them
- 5:52is with an electricity grill
- 5:54where the insect flies towards the light
- 5:56and then it gets a shock
- 5:58problem with that is that if the insect
- 6:01is quite large it can explode
- 6:05and then a wing here and the leg the
- 6:07other part
- 6:08it will be distorted into many places
- 6:11so the new type are with a glue patch
- 6:15so they store the the insect is
- 6:18preserved there although it doesn't die
- 6:21immediately but
- 6:22it doesn't make a mess of the insect and
- 6:24distribute his body parts
- 6:26all over the place this is a mouse trap
- 6:30there are many different types of mouse
- 6:32traps some are more cruel than others
- 6:35using glue some others are literally
- 6:38traps where the
- 6:39creature goes in stays there stays alive
- 6:42in there
- 6:43until the pest controller comes and
- 6:45removes it
- 6:47these pheromone types are
- 6:50this is a glue patch at the back so the
- 6:52insect
- 6:53gets stuck there the pheromone part is
- 6:57the pheromones are hormones that are
- 6:59released by the female insects
- 7:02so this type of trap works mostly on the
- 7:05males
- 7:06not on the females so the males fly
- 7:08towards the pheromone
- 7:10thinking that they are gonna mate with a
- 7:12lot of females
- 7:13and they die disappointed stuck with the
- 7:15glue patch
- 7:16unfortunately to them and the females
- 7:19die
- 7:20lonely without males so you you stop the
- 7:24growth of the of the population
- 7:27but these are all controls not
- 7:30preventive measures these are controls
- 7:33maybe this is a preventive measure
- 7:35because it is on the outside not on the
- 7:36inside
- 7:37but we will also have ones like these on
- 7:39the inside
- 7:41food storage have mentioned
- 7:44refrigeration and freezing already
- 7:47we didn't mention hot cabinets
- 7:50when we have ready to eat food
- 7:54let's take the pastiche scenario
- 7:56everyone living in malta knows what
- 7:58pastacia are because we're quite
- 8:00fond of them and when you go to buy
- 8:03pasta see
- 8:04the cheesecake and pea cake person will
- 8:07give you a really hot
- 8:08cheesecake and that is the way it should
- 8:11be presented
- 8:12because it should be crispy it should be
- 8:13warm and
- 8:15for food safety it should be warmer than
- 8:1763 degrees
- 8:19because that is where the danger zone
- 8:23stops so for that reason the temperature
- 8:26should be higher than 63
- 8:28always in fact
- 8:31all of them do have this cabinet with a
- 8:34burner at the bottom where they
- 8:36are kept really warm that's the old type
- 8:38new type r with
- 8:39heating elements using electricity but
- 8:43that is the best way of presenting
- 8:45cheesecakes
- 8:46as we call them for both variants and
- 8:50any other food for that matter even in
- 8:52restaurants where they produce
- 8:54a place for a big table not all the food
- 8:57gets prepared the same time so the one
- 9:00that gets prepared the first
- 9:02ends up in a hot cabinet until the rest
- 9:04of the food is ready and then presented
- 9:06to the table at once that is for food
- 9:09safety not just for
- 9:11the pleasure of eating it warm packaging
- 9:14should be
- 9:15separated from the rest of the food in a
- 9:17storage
- 9:18and so are allergens as much as possible
- 9:22because sometimes it's really difficult
- 9:23to separate allergens from uh
- 9:27from the rest of the non-allergenic food
- 9:30because in some cases you have
- 9:31complex mixes which contain this have
- 9:34one allergen the other have the other
- 9:36so it can quite be tricky as well
- 9:40fluids if we have shelving
- 9:44it is most ideal that the fluids are at
- 9:46the bottom shelf
- 9:47so that if they drip they drip onto the
- 9:49floor they don't grip on the rest of the
- 9:51food
- 9:52underneath them also if the fluids are
- 9:54contained in
- 9:56breakable materials they should be
- 9:58shrouded in plastic so if they fall
- 10:01they're protected from breakage as much
- 10:03as possible
- 10:05some other important aspect of shelving
- 10:08the bottom shelf
- 10:09should be at least six inches of the
- 10:11floor so that
- 10:13when you do clean it facilitates the
- 10:16process
- 10:17also pest control can put their bait
- 10:19points under there
- 10:21and check them easily without a lot of
- 10:26trouble to reach them or make them
- 10:29unreachable
- 10:30first in first out is a methodology that
- 10:33is used
- 10:34to control which product is used first
- 10:38and
- 10:38which product is used the second to
- 10:41avoid having expired stuff in our
- 10:44storages so basically it's
- 10:47it's very similar to what we do with
- 10:49milk
- 10:50in in our homes when we buy the fresh
- 10:53milk we don't start using the fresh milk
- 10:55immediately we use the older milk we
- 10:56have in the fridge
- 10:58until it's finished and then we use the
- 10:59new one first in first out
- 11:02you can also have different methods of
- 11:06consuming food
- 11:07like first expiring first out but
- 11:11those are not the standard those are not
- 11:13the standard
- 11:16criteria and storage first expiring
- 11:18first out
- 11:19should not be the norm should only be
- 11:21used in
- 11:22occasional scenarios where we have
- 11:26products coming um with a shorter shelf
- 11:29life than normal
- 11:31and probably at a good price and we need
- 11:33to consume them first
- 11:35to move them in the food chain
- 11:39so that they will not go bad before we
- 11:41even use them
- 11:44temperature control of storage
- 11:47there should be records nowadays records
- 11:50are more
- 11:50digital than on paper but i still find
- 11:54plenty of enterprises using paper
- 11:58records nothing
- 11:59no harm with them as long as they are
- 12:01filled in the right frequency
- 12:03and whoever finds the temperature in the
- 12:05wrong
- 12:08bracket should raise the alarm what does
- 12:10the this is the biggest problem with
- 12:12paper records
- 12:13some people just write on them and give
- 12:16no importance to whatever they are
- 12:17writing
- 12:19it is also important that we control the
- 12:22quality
- 12:23of the fridge or freezers
- 12:27if there is ice buildup we should we
- 12:29remove ice buildup because ice buildup
- 12:31will make
- 12:32the cooling process even more difficult
- 12:36also it starts to become dangerous
- 12:38because ice can become
- 12:39heavy and fall on someone
- 12:44the door packing shouldn't be noticed
- 12:46the quality of the door packing
- 12:48in some cases the door packing beca
- 12:51becomes torn
- 12:52it will allow air leakages in and out
- 12:55hot moist air will go in
- 12:58in the fridges and freezers and will
- 13:00create condensation and further ice
- 13:03inside the unit eventually
- 13:06in refrigerators you end up having a lot
- 13:07of condensation on the top and
- 13:09mold which will start to drip all over
- 13:11the food
- 13:12creating other problems so door packing
- 13:15is really important to keep it under
- 13:17check
- 13:19defrosting when defrosting a fridge or a
- 13:23freezer
- 13:24it's a good part of maintenance towards
- 13:27the unit because it keeps the unit
- 13:28running effect
- 13:29efficiently but it's very important that
- 13:32defrosting of the unit
- 13:34is done without the food inside if we
- 13:36allow the food inside and defrost the
- 13:38whole unit
- 13:39the food will heat up and then it will
- 13:41be destroyed
- 13:42or partially destroyed so we need to
- 13:45remove it put it in another
- 13:46unit until it's defrosted and then cold
- 13:50cools back and then food can be taken
- 13:52back to it but not with the food inside
- 13:56condensation we mentioned um same
- 14:00applies to vehicles
- 14:02and but there are two scenarios to
- 14:04vehicles
- 14:06vehicles for short distances
- 14:09do not need data loggers per se you can
- 14:12check food on arrival if i am
- 14:16a convenience shop for so to say and i'm
- 14:19receiving
- 14:20goods
- 14:23it's okay for me to get a thermometer
- 14:25check the food that's coming in imagine
- 14:27i'm getting virgota
- 14:29and i see okay temperature is four
- 14:31degrees three degrees good give me the
- 14:33quota i'm going to sign it for it
- 14:35but if i find on arrival that the
- 14:36temperature is 15
- 14:39i should not accept that and i should
- 14:41send it back
- 14:42with the distributed him this is not in
- 14:44the right temperature i do not
- 14:46need it i'm not going to accept it
- 14:48however for long distances
- 14:51imagine i'm i've bought a container full
- 14:54of
- 14:55meat coming from argentina
- 14:58this meat would not travel for half an
- 15:01hour but
- 15:02will travel for weeks until it reaches
- 15:04me so
- 15:05just checking the temperature on arrival
- 15:09will not give me a very good idea of the
- 15:12conditions
- 15:13within the container over the past three
- 15:15four weeks that the
- 15:17meat has been traveling in that case i
- 15:19would need
- 15:20something of this sort which gives me
- 15:24a clear idea of the temperature
- 15:27of the product during transit so in this
- 15:31case
- 15:32this is 6th january it's an american
- 15:36date
- 15:366th january midnight temperature was
- 15:39minus 20.
- 15:41so 6th january
- 15:44noon it was minus 20 something
- 15:4820.5 midnight the next day it was minus
- 15:5321 and 0.5 and like this you can see
- 15:56that it never went
- 15:58higher than minus 18 it was always lower
- 16:01than -18
- 16:02that is what i want to see when i'm
- 16:04receiving my goods
- 16:05if i see a graph going down like that
- 16:08remaining there and then going back
- 16:10here then it's automatically implied to
- 16:13me that
- 16:14this product has been abused and i don't
- 16:16should not be accepting it
- 16:19in case of insurance claims not having
- 16:21data
- 16:34been already taken away from your bank
- 16:37by the supplier
- 16:38and that's no one's fault
- 16:42curtains on cold areas
- 16:45or frozen areas these act as a door
- 16:49without having an actual door so the
- 16:52advantage with them is that
- 16:53if this area is a transitional area
- 16:56where
- 16:56trucks lifters are coming in and out
- 16:59carrying
- 17:00the goods without having a need for a
- 17:03door because if if there was a gate
- 17:05it will take much more time for the gate
- 17:07to open and close every time
- 17:09like this the opening and closing is
- 17:11much easier however
- 17:12there are certain conditions that need
- 17:14to be met number one there shouldn't be
- 17:17any missing
- 17:18curtains like there is on this picture
- 17:20because a missing piece
- 17:22means that cold air is rushing out all
- 17:25the time here
- 17:26and that need to be compensated by the
- 17:27compressor which is money and energy
- 17:30the curtains are all touching the floor
- 17:33so the
- 17:34the first six inches of these curtains
- 17:36will be really really dirty
- 17:38and every everything touching and going
- 17:40underneath will
- 17:41have smudges of the dirt and also there
- 17:44are even gaps
- 17:46in between the curtains because they are
- 17:48not overlapping well
- 17:49so that leaves other spaces there in
- 17:52some cases i even find broken ones which
- 17:54are left like that
- 17:56if you have a broken piece it allows
- 17:59exhaust
- 18:00of cool air and hot air to come in
- 18:05same applies to food trucks
- 18:08even more so food trucks that do not
- 18:11generate
- 18:12cold air as they as they proceed
- 18:16some coal trucks are literally like a
- 18:18cooler box with a nice pack
- 18:20and that's it so once you open the door
- 18:22all the colder will rush out
- 18:25and the capacity of cool angle will
- 18:27start to diminish by
- 18:29time quickly
