About this opportunity

Sacramento County is requesting bids for Glassy-Winged Sharpshooter (GWSS) pesticide treatment services throughout Sacramento County under RFB 2026-RFB-0093, with bids due August 26, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. The County reserves the right to award multiple contracts. Bidders must hold a current California pest control business license, Qualified Applicator Licenses (categories A, B, and C) from the California Department of Pesticide Regulation, and registration with the Sacramento County Agricultural Commissioner — mandatory eligibility filters.

The scope covers foliar spray and soil injection treatments to GWSS host plants within 150 meters of confirmed GWSS locations across residential properties, roadside landscaping, parks, and school grounds. Approved foliar products are Tempo SC Ultra, Altus, and Merit 2F; soil injection uses Merit 2F or CoreTect, all applied at labeled rates. Contractors must demonstrate capacity to treat up to 20 properties per day and respond within 2 days of notification. Services must be performed within 30 days of service request or as otherwise agreed with the county requestor.

The contract carries an initial 12-month term with County options to extend for four additional one-year periods, not to exceed five years and six months total unless authorized by the Board of Supervisors. Estimated project completion is six months from contract execution. The County does not guarantee minimum purchase quantities. Contractors must maintain Commercial General Liability insurance of $2 million per occurrence, Automobile Liability of $1 million per accident, and statutory Workers' Compensation coverage. Travel costs are included in the contract price and require advance written approval. Monthly progress reports are required.

Pricing is bid per residential property; responses remain valid for 90 calendar days after closing. Award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Questions are due August 24, 2026, and award notification is scheduled for August 28, 2026. Responses must be submitted electronically through SacCountyEbids and include certification of child support compliance, employment reporting, wage assignment orders, non-collusion affidavits, and Iran Contracting Act compliance, along with a Risk Assessment Questionnaire.
