  (1) Containers of poisonous or toxic materials and personal care items shall bear a legible manufacturer's label.

  (2) Working containers used for storing poisonous or toxic materials such as cleaners and sanitizers taken from bulk supplies shall be clearly and individually identified with the common name of the material.

  (3) Poisonous or toxic materials shall be stored so they cannot contaminate food, equipment, utensils, linens, and single-service and single-use articles by:

  (a) separating the poisonous or toxic materials by spacing or partitioning; and

  (b) locating the poisonous or toxic materials in an area that is not above food, equipment, utensils, linens, and single-service or single-use articles.

  (4) Only those poisonous or toxic materials that are required for the operation and maintenance of a food truck, such as for the cleaning and sanitizing of equipment and utensils and the control of insects and rodents, shall be allowed in a food truck.

  (5) Poisonous or toxic materials shall be:

  (a) used according to:

  (i) Rule R392-100 and local health department regulations,

  (ii) manufacturer's use directions included in labeling, and, for a pesticide, manufacturer's label instructions that state that use is allowed in a food establishment,

  (iii) the conditions of certification for use of the pest control materials, and

  (iv) additional conditions that may be established by the local health officer; and

  (b) applied so that:

  (i) a hazard to employees or other persons is not constituted, and

  (ii) contamination including toxic residues due to drip, drain, fog, splash or spray on food, equipment, utensils, linens, and single-service and single-use articles is prevented. This is achieved by:

  (c) using pest management methods, if pests are found, such as trapping devices, eliminating harborage, or other means of pest control.

  (8) A container previously used to store poisonous or toxic materials may not be used to store, transport, or dispense food.

  (9) Rodent bait shall be contained in a covered, tamper-resistant bait station.
