NIGP 45078: Traps and Snares, Animal

NIGP 45078 Traps and Snares, Animal (Item) encompasses integrated pest management supplies and services—including rodent traps, bird exclusion systems, netting, wire, and baiting equipment—that state and local governments procure to control wildlife, rodents, insects, and birds across transportation hubs, correctional facilities, school districts, and county mosquito-control operations. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers requesting turnkey pest control and animal abatement services bundled with trapping, exclusion, and removal work rather than purchasing traps and snares as standalone commodities. Issuing bodies include transit authorities (Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority), state correctional and rehabilitation departments (California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation), school districts (Salt Lake City School District), county health and mosquito-control divisions (Bergen County, New Jersey), and state purchasing cooperatives administering statewide contracts on behalf of multiple jurisdictions (State of Utah Division of Purchasing). A pattern of repeat procurement activity appears in California (CDCR rebid activity in February and June 2026) and New Jersey (Bergen County mosquito-control catalog procurements in February and April 2026).

Geographic spread centers on California, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Utah, with broader multistate cooperative purchasing frameworks available through Sourcewell (Minnesota-based service cooperative serving Washington state counties and public entities nationwide). Representative opportunities include the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority's RFP 76-26 for integrated pest management across four transit zones (due July 27, 2026), California CDCR's IFB C5612975-D, Rebid 2 for statewide temporary-relief pest control and small animal abatement (due July 29, 2026), Salt Lake City School District's avian exclusion and bird mitigation project at its transportation bus station (due June 30, 2026, with mandatory pre-bid on June 16), Bergen County's mosquito control products catalog procurement under cooperative purchasing (April 2026 rebid), and the State of Utah's five-year cooperative pest control contract (due May 1, 2026). Most opportunities specify 24/7 or 24-hour emergency response capability, minimum insurance thresholds ranging from $1 million to $5 million in liability coverage, and licensed operator or pesticide-application certifications. Cooperative purchasing mechanisms and set-aside preferences for small business, minority-owned, veteran-owned, and disabled veteran enterprises appear consistently across jurisdictions.
