UNSPSC 41102501: Laboratory insect containers

UNSPSC 41102501 Laboratory insect containers, a Commodity code, encompasses mosquito control supplies and equipment—including gravid traps, adulticides, larvicides, dusters, misters, backpack sprayers, and truck-mounted ULV units—that state and local governments procure to support vector control and disease prevention programs. Issuing bodies span county mosquito control divisions (Bergen County, New Jersey), municipal health departments (City of Philadelphia), and school districts seeking educational and instructional materials related to pest management and environmental science. The work is concrete and operational: counties and cities establish catalog pricing agreements for chemical products and spray equipment to be deployed by mosquito control divisions, while school districts source instructional supplies and equipment supporting career and technical education in related fields.

Recent activity clusters in the Northeast, with Bergen County, New Jersey posting two related opportunities (one in February 2026 and a re-bid in April 2026) for 24-month mosquito control product catalogs under a cooperative purchasing vehicle serving over 270 public entities across multiple states, and the City of Philadelphia soliciting Reiter Cummings Inspired Gravid Traps as a micro purchase under $41,000 due July 15, 2026. Bergen County's February 19, 2026 RFB (BC-BID-26-15) and its April 3, 2026 re-bid (BCBID26151REBID) both closed before the current date; the Philadelphia IFB (B2727498) also closed July 15, 2026. A single Klein Independent School District (Texas) RFP posted April 17, 2026 (due June 5, 2026) for Career Technical Education instructional resources across 17 CTE program areas, including agricultural science and health sciences, is likely a mismatch with the laboratory insect container code and does not reflect active market demand under this commodity classification.
