UNSPSC 10191509: Insecticides

UNSPSC 10191509 Insecticides (Commodity) covers liquid and dry insecticide products that state and local governments purchase for vegetation management, pest control, and mosquito and vector control across departments, facilities, and public lands. Recent solicitations show state agencies, counties, municipalities, and special districts acquiring granular insecticides, liquid concentrates, aerosol spray formulations, and aquatic herbicides—often bundled with adjuvants and surfactants—for highway maintenance, municipal grounds, forestry management, public housing complexes, educational facilities, and wildlife control programs. Issuing bodies include state departments of enterprise services and environmental protection, county commissioners' offices, municipalities, colleges, and special districts. The mix reflects both routine procurement (monthly pest control services at facilities) and specialized applications (aerial larvicide treatment, spongy moth control).
