UNSPSC 41102507: Entomological catching equipment

UNSPSC 41102507 Entomological catching equipment, a Commodity code, covers specialized traps and devices used by state and local public health and environmental agencies to capture and monitor disease-vector insects, particularly mosquitoes. The City of Philadelphia's recent bid for Reiter Cummings Inspired Gravid Traps—specialized mosquito-collection equipment used in vector surveillance and control programs—exemplifies the concrete work solicited under this code. State and local health departments, environmental agencies, and vector-control districts procure these devices to support disease monitoring, population assessment, and integrated pest management activities. The equipment ranges from passive collection traps to species-specific capture devices designed for surveillance of disease vectors such as Aedes, Culex, and Anopheles mosquitoes.

The City of Philadelphia issued the primary recent opportunity under this code: solicitation B2727498, a micro-purchase IFB for Reiter Cummings Inspired Gravid Traps with a due date of July 15, 2026, valued under $41,000, awarded as a whole or by line item to the lowest responsible bidder. The city required electronic submission through PHLContracts, compliance with local-business-entity and nondiscrimination provisions, and standard insurance minimums (general liability $500,000 per occurrence). The contract term is 365 days from the effective date, with FOB Destination delivery and payment contingent upon delivery and city approval. The source provides no additional recent opportunities from other jurisdictions, indicating limited recent activity under this Commodity code in the state and local market.
