UNSPSC 41102505: Entomological mounting materials

UNSPSC 41102505 Entomological mounting materials is a Commodity code covering specialized equipment and supplies used in insect trapping, surveillance, and collection operations. Recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows demand for mosquito surveillance and monitoring equipment, specifically gravid traps used in vector-control and disease-prevention programs. City and county health departments, school districts, and educational institutions soliciting under this code typically seek equipment that supports pest management, epidemiological research, and instructional use in entomology and life sciences curricula. The issuing bodies range from municipal public-health procurement offices to large independent school districts serving as anchor customers for instructional science equipment.

The City of Philadelphia issued a micro-purchase invitation for Reiter Cummings Inspired Gravid Traps (IFB B2727498) with a response deadline of July 15, 2026, under $41,000, reflecting active municipal demand for mosquito-monitoring apparatus. Klein Independent School District in Harris County, Texas posted an RFP (26-101) in April 2026 for Career Technical Education and Advanced Academics resources, due June 5, 2026, which encompasses life sciences and biology instructional materials that may include entomological equipment and supplies as part of broader STEM curriculum procurement. Activity concentrates in Texas and Pennsylvania, with opportunities spanning both public-health vector-control missions and K–12 science-education supply chains. The code shows limited recent posting frequency; most opportunities appear episodic rather than sustained, reflecting specialized and lower-volume demand within state and local procurement portfolios.
