Rodenticides Industry Overview

The global rodenticides market size was valued at USD 5.27 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6% from 2023 to 2030. Factors such as the increasing prevalence of pest-related diseases, a surging rodent population, rising demand for pest control, and the availability of natural rodenticides are likely to be major drivers of market growth. According to the 2019 American Housing Survey, among the 124 million occupied homes in the United States, 14.8 million reported seeing mice or rats inside the house over the course of a year.

Rising concerns regarding economic losses associated with damages caused by rodents in agricultural fields are likely to drive growth over the coming years. However, environmental concerns over the use of chemicals and their ill effects on humans and other living beings are likely to restrain demand. Therefore, product application is highly regulated by stringent laws. Regulations related to chemical rodenticide usage have been established in North America and Europe. For instance, all pesticide products must be registered under the U.S. EPA before being sold publicly. These products are regulated by the EPA under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA).

Increasing rodent population is a major factor behind the growing prevalence of transferable diseases such as plague, Hantavirus infection, and Lassa fever, which affects the environment, wildlife, and human beings. This has triggered the use of rodent control products in commercial, residential, and industrial applications. These products are witnessing high demand in major cities globally. Companies are developing products to effectively control rodent population. The rising number of offices, hospitals, hotels, and housing, along with the high demand for hygiene, are expected to propel product demand.

Natural rodenticides are biodegradable and non-toxic to human, pets, and wildlife. They do not affect domestic animals or humans if consumed accidentally and they do not contaminate the environment. Moreover, such products are economically viable, as they do not require special storage, handling, transportation, and disposal.
