About this file
This is a scoring sheet document dated November 9, 2026, for cotton plugs required by the California Department of Food and Agriculture for fruit fly detection traps. The document presents standardized measurement specifications and testing criteria for evaluating vendor submissions. Cotton plugs must meet precise dimensional and weight requirements: length of 2.00 inches (minimum 1.88 inches, maximum 2.13 inches), diameter of 0.50 inches (minimum 0.50 inches, maximum 0.60 inches), and weight of 1.5 grams (minimum 1.5 grams, maximum 2.5 grams). Vendors whose cotton plugs do not fall within these specifications are automatically disqualified, and subsequent testing for fit and absorption does not proceed. The scoring sheet evaluates 40 cotton plug samples across three performance categories: measurements compliance, fitting capability in bait hangers, and absorption capacity.
Vendors must achieve a minimum score of 95 percent to pass the evaluation. The fitting test assesses whether cotton plugs achieve a tight fit in the bait hanger with no loose fittings, evaluated across 160 samples with a pass/fail scoring system. The absorption test evaluates whether cotton plugs successfully absorb 5 milliliters of liquid lure in two separate trials: 80 samples tested with Methyl-eugenol and 80 samples tested with Cue-lure. The scoring sheet indicates that the vendor under evaluation achieved 95 percent on both the fitting test and absorption test, scoring 152 out of 160 points in each category, thereby meeting the minimum passing threshold for all performance metrics.
