At least twice each week, each such keeper shall cause all litter and droppings so collected to be disposed of in a way as not to permit the presence of fly larvae; and
      4.   Cause all feed provided to be stored and kept in a ratproof, flytight building, box, container or receptacle.
   B.   The premises where large or small animal or animals are kept shall be subject to inspection by an animal control officer any reasonable hour of the day. (Ord. 1510, 8-8-2000)
