UNSPSC 10191512: Cypermethrin

Non systemic insecticide used to control a wide range of insects in fruits,vines, vegetables, cereals, maize, rice, cotton, forestry and ornamentals, etc.

UNSPSC 10191512 Cypermethrin is a Commodity code that encompasses the procurement of this synthetic pyrethroid insecticide as a chemical input for pest and mosquito control operations across state and local jurisdictions. State and local governments buy cypermethrin—along with other EPA-registered pesticides and insecticides—primarily as a component within broader pest control service contracts, chemical supply agreements, and specialized vector control programs. Recent opportunities show that the code sits within a larger ecosystem of insecticide procurement that includes permethrin products, malathion, naled, and other active ingredients ordered through competitive bids and as-needed supply agreements. Issuing bodies span independent school districts (Harlingen Consolidated Independent School District), municipal departments (City of Ocala, City of Dallas, City of St. Cloud, City of McKinney), county governments (Volusia County, Gwinnett County, Hillsborough County, Sacramento County, Brazoria County, Orange County, Pinellas County), state departments (State of Georgia, State of Nevada), colleges (Valencia College), and special-purpose agencies (Pinellas County Public Works Department). The mix includes routine facility pest management, vector control for disease suppression (glassy-winged sharpshooter, Lethal Bronzing Disease), mosquito abatement, and vegetation management. Repeat buyers include Florida municipalities and counties (Ocala, Volusia, Hillsborough, Orange County, Pinellas) that solicit monthly or quarterly pest control services covering dozens of facilities.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida, Texas, Georgia, Nevada, Washington, and California, with standout volume from Florida counties and cities. Representative recent opportunities include Harlingen Consolidated Independent School District's pest control services RFP due October 19, 2026 (ITB PEST1026), the City of Ocala's citywide pest control services for 56 facilities (ITB FAC/260303, due January 8, 2026), Brazoria County's mosquito control chemicals bid for ten distinct chemical products including permethrin concentrates (ITB #26-50, due May 27, 2026), and Hillsborough County's herbicide spraying and planting contract estimated at $544,532.50 for three years (ITB2600339, due August 3, 2026). Sacramento County sought glassy-winged sharpshooter pesticide treatment services under RFB 2026-RFB-0093 (due August 26, 2026), and Washington State Department of Enterprise Services solicited a statewide vegetation management and related products contract covering liquid and dry herbicides and adjuvants (RFP due August 20, 2026). Most pest control contracts run for three years with optional renewals; chemical supply agreements typically span one to four years. Pricing is often structured as monthly or quarterly rates per facility, per-acre rates, per-unit rates, or fixed cost per square foot depending on the service type. While cypermethrin itself appears in these solicitations as one among several approved products rather than as a standalone commodity purchase, the code reflects the active market for synthetic pyrethroid insecticides within state and local vector and pest management operations.
