TO: Steve May, Public Works and Utilities Director
FROM: Noreen Swiontek, Senior Management Analyst
SUBJECT: Golden Bell Products Agreement—Sewer manhole roach control
DATE: August 8, 2017
Golden Bell sprays the EPA approved product into sewer manholes to
control roaches from infesting the structure. The product warranty is 2
Description: years. Each year the company sprays manholes within one section of
the city.
Location: Various Manholes
Project Cost: $25,000.00
Funding Source: 70-94860-64116-00000-000
This is a sole source provider. Only Golden Bell Products, Inc. is granted
distribution and application of the INSECTA chemical provided by JABco
Bidding: manufacturing company in the state of California. INSECTA is the only
product of its type for use in sewer manholes and EPA approved.
Staff Analysis & Recommendation
The spraying of this product keeps roaches from living inside the sewer manhole structures where
they typically live and spread. An infestation in a manhole makes completing maintenance on the
structures difficult. In addition, roaches can breed in these conditions and spread to neighboring
homes.
