REV: 05-31-22 MI from children. Under no circumstances shall bait stations be installed or placed in areas where children are known to play. In areas where it is obvious that children do not play, the bait stations must still be adequately concealed so as not to be conspicuous to the ordinary child. Contractor will not deface private improvements and will be required to exercise his/her judgment in a prudent manner regarding the location of bait stations, etc. The bait block with the “Caution” tag must be secured to the stake through a hole made in the center of the end cap of the bait container and then placed into this excavation and secured into the ground by the stake at the rear of the excavation. The open end of the container should face out and slightly downward. The tie-wire should be drawn tight, bringing the station to rest against the stake. The installation shall be completed by covering and tightly packing the station with earth so that only about one (1) to three (3) inches of the reduced open end of the container remains exposed. The approximate location of each bait station shall be marked in the field by the contractor by painting a red colored dot approximately one (1) to two (2) inches in diameter on some plainly visible object such as a stone, boulder or tree. The painted dot shall be situated approximately ten (10) feet away from the bait station so as to designate its general but not specific location. One dot if the bait station is located on the same side or two dots if the bait station is located on the opposite creek bank. Any bait containers overlooked and not removed the previous year shall be removed by the Contractor at the time of installation at no cost to the City. Bait Inspection, Replacement, Reinstallation and Removal: Inspections along the creek shall be made at thirty (30) day intervals to determine the condition of the bait and to service and maintain the bait as required. The Contractor should be guided in their performance so as not to exceed the parameters set out in Exhibit Contractor will not be paid for unauthorized work performed. Bait containers found to be inadequately secured, positioned, marked or concealed shall be corrected by Contractor in conjunction with making the inspection. The correction shall be included in the inspection charge. An inspection fee shall be allowed for each bait station location inspected and will include making the aforesaid corrections. A red colored dot is to be used at the time of installation. At each subsequent inspection, a different colored enamel paint must be applied over the preexisting markings as follows: ATTY/AGR.2022.127/Vector Pest Control (Dewey Services, Inc.) (Page 21 of 24)
