I was once part the management team hosting an FDA inspection of a medical device manufacturer in the UK in the 90's.
The inspector was touring the clean room and noted the presence of "insecticutors" in the area outside the main manufacturing clean room.
He asked why we needed them, and we pointed out that the surrounding marshland gave rise to high numbers of mosquitos in the summer and the devices were to kill them before they could get into the clean room.
He asked to see training records and procedures for the insecticutors and our facility manager shouted out "There's no point, mosquitos can't read".
Sadly the auditor had no sense of humour and the facilities manager was removed from the audit team.

I wish a GSOH (good sense of humour) was a requirement for auditors... it often helps to help people lighten up.
