BanfieldBio Inc.

BanfieldBio Inc. is a technology contract research company specializing in the development of innovative pest control biotechnologies and insect monitoring solutions. Based at an 8-acre research facility near Seattle, Washington, the firm focuses on creating novel methods to mitigate pests that impact global health, including forestry and vector-borne disease research. The company operates through a collaborative model, partnering with universities, NGOs, and government agencies—such as the USDA and various military health centers—to investigate new technologies, demonstrate their efficacy, and commercialize effective products. Their proprietary offerings include specialized insect trapping devices like the blue vane trap and multiple funnel traps, alongside intellectual property developed for monitoring and managing pest populations.

This expertise is critical for clients and partners involved in entomological research, public health, and vector biology, where understanding and controlling pest movement is essential. BanfieldBio solves complex challenges in the pest control market by applying advanced biological, chemical, and mechanical insights to develop tools that do not rely on standard, off-the-shelf ingredients. Their work is supported by federal research grants and contracts, with a proven history of developing patented trapping systems and diagnostic methods, such as integrated frameworks for arthropod acquisition and pathogen identification. Through these efforts, the company provides essential support for large-scale field studies, pollinator research, and public health initiatives worldwide.
