UNSPSC 41102509: Entomological dippers

UNSPSC 41102509 Entomological dippers (Commodity) covers mosquito traps and related vector-control collection equipment that state and local health departments, vector-control districts, and municipalities procure to support disease surveillance and mosquito abatement programs. The code spans handheld and automated traps designed to capture gravid (egg-bearing) mosquitoes and other insects for monitoring population density, species identification, and pesticide-resistance tracking. State and local governments use these tools as part of integrated pest management and public-health response to vector-borne illness outbreaks.

The recent-opportunity record is sparse and shows a geographic and issuing-body mismatch with the code's nominal scope. The City of Philadelphia issued a micro-purchase IFB (Solicitation B2727498, due July 15, 2026) for Reiter Cummings Inspired Gravid Traps under $41,000 — a direct fit for the code. However, the second opportunity in the record — Klein Independent School District's RFP 26-101 for Career Technical Education and Advanced Academics instructional resources, posted April 17, 2026 with a June 5, 2026 response date — is unrelated to entomological equipment and appears to be mistagged. Based on available data, the code shows limited recent activity. Philadelphia's procurement represents the only clearly relevant recent state or local solicitation for entomological dippers in the source block and suggests that demand for this equipment remains sporadic and episodic, driven by vector-control initiatives rather than standing demand.
