UNSPSC 85111702: Tsetse flies management or control services

In this classification, this commodity indicates the activities required for the management and control of tsetse fly infestations

UNSPSC 85111702 Tsetse flies management or control services is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to classify vector and pest management services, though recent opportunities show the code being applied primarily to mosquito control rather than tsetse-specific work. The City of Arlington, Texas issued an RFP on October 8, 2026 (due October 22, 2026) for an annual requirements contract covering mosquito surveillance, trap catch, complaint-based larviciding, targeted adulticide application, reporting, and record keeping — work that requires qualified pesticide applicator licensure and compliance with guidelines from the American Mosquito Control Association, CDC, EPA, Texas Department of Agriculture, and Texas Department of State Health Services. Issuing bodies under this code include municipalities (cities) and county health systems. The code sees activity concentrated in Texas, with the Arlington solicitation representing current municipal procurement for integrated mosquito management.

The City of Arlington's mosquito control RFP is the primary recent opportunity aligned with the code's nominal scope; the Santa Clara County and Bernalillo County opportunities in the source block address temporary health professional staffing and opioid settlement grants respectively, and do not reflect typical work under this Commodity code. State and local procurement under 85111702 remains narrow and geographically dispersed, with Texas showing the most recent activity. Firms pursuing this code should hold active pesticide applicator credentials, demonstrated experience with surveillance and integrated pest management protocols, and familiarity with CDC and EPA vector control guidance.
