Pest Control Services for TCSTL

The Missouri Department of Corrections is requesting bids for pest control services at the Transition Center of St. Louis (TCSTL), a 350-bed male offender facility, with bids due July 30, 2026 and performance beginning August 15, 2026. Service-Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (SDVE) certification confers a three-point evaluation preference, though the set-aside is not mandatory.

The scope encompasses treatment for rodents, insects, and other pests across approximately 12,634 square feet of interior space and 1,900 linear feet of exterior perimeter. Services include bi-monthly treatments (24 times annually) for kitchen, dining areas, food storage, maintenance areas, medical offices, and warehouse spaces; monthly treatments (12 times annually) for vending areas and facility exterior; and emergency services as needed. All treatments must be coordinated with facility operations during 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. The contractor must provide initial treatment of all areas and maintain routine service schedules. All pesticides, materials, and equipment must comply with the Missouri Pesticide Use Act and OSHA standards.

Annual expenditures shall not exceed $99,999.99. The contract runs from August 15, 2026, through August 14, 2027, with the Department holding options to renew for two additional one-year periods. Vendors must submit firm fixed prices per treatment for each line item and indicate maximum percentage price increases or minimum percentage decreases for renewal options; renewal pricing defaults to original rates if no percentage is stated.

Eligible bidders must be Missouri Department of Agriculture certified as a pesticide company or technician and hold current Pesticide Technician Licenses for applicable application categories. All vendors must register with MissouriBUYS, enroll in E-Verify if a business entity, and be authorized to transact business in Missouri. Bids are submitted electronically through MissouriBUYS. Non-mandatory site tours are available by appointment with at least four days' notice. The current contract number is Y24708083.
