One way could be (in /bin/sh):

  for i in \
    LANG \
    LC_CTYPE \
    LC_NUMERIC \
    LC_TIME \
    LC_COLLATE \
    LC_MONETARY \
    LC_MESSAGES \
    LC_ALL \
  ; do
    unset ${i}
  done
  LANG="C"
  export LANG
  
  <perform query>

That's admittedly a rather irritating thing to have to do, but
certainly does the job.
