Rodent’s infestation at indoor RTE food premises and factor’s that attract rodent’s infestation were obtained. The caught rodents (n=29) species were identified based on their physical appearance and ectoparasites were collected by combing. The analysis of rodent species caught shows Rattus norvegicus (n=29) and none other species was caught by live trap. The total catchment at Pusat Hentian Kajang RTE food premises (n=12), while for the Section 15 Bandar Baru Bangi RTE food premises (n=17). None Xenopsylla cheopis were obtained on Rattus norvegicus, but other type of ectoparasite was found on caught rodents (n=5,17.24%). Total ectoparasite index presence on rodent is 0.172 (<1).
