Understanding Regional Differences in Rodenticides Market Demand and Growth

Comments · 6 Views

In 2022, the global rodenticides market was valued at USD 5.27 billion, with a projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6% from 2023 to 2030.

In 2022, the global rodenticides market was valued at USD 5.27 billion, with a projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6% from 2023 to 2030. This growth is driven by factors including the rising prevalence of rodent-borne diseases, a surge in the global rodent population, increasing demand for pest control, and the availability of natural rodenticide options. For example, the 2019 American Housing Survey revealed that out of 124 million occupied homes in the United States, 14.8 million reported rodent sightings within the past year, underscoring the demand for effective rodent control.

 

Concerns about economic losses due to rodent damage in agriculture are further fueling demand. However, environmental concerns around chemical rodenticides and their potential adverse effects on humans and non-target species are expected to limit demand. In response, the use of these products is regulated under strict guidelines, especially in regions like North America and Europe. In the U.S., for example, all pesticide products must receive registration from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) before public distribution. These regulations aim to minimize the ecological and health risks associated with chemical rodenticides.

 

The rapid growth in rodent populations contributes to the increased spread of zoonotic diseases like plague, Hantavirus, and Lassa fever, which pose threats to humans, wildlife, and the environment. This health risk has led to heightened demand for rodent control across commercial, residential, and industrial sectors, particularly in urban areas where pest-related issues are most acute. Companies are focusing on developing innovative products to manage rodent populations effectively. Additionally, the rising number of offices, hospitals, hotels, and housing units—paired with a strong emphasis on hygiene standards—continues to drive the need for rodent control solutions in various settings.

Regional Insights

 

Asia Pacific:

Asia Pacific led the global rodenticides market in 2022, capturing a 29.8% revenue share, and it is expected to grow at the fastest compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6% throughout the forecast period. The region’s competitive landscape includes over 3,000 pest control companies. Unusual weather patterns, such as floods, heavy rainfall, and cyclones, are major contributors to rodent outbreaks across Asia Pacific. Additionally, abundant food supply in agricultural areas provides an ideal breeding environment for rodents, further boosting their populations. These factors are anticipated to drive sustained demand for effective pest control solutions in the region.

 

North America:

In 2022, North America held a substantial share of the rodenticides market. The region's demand is supported by a high concentration of manufacturers and stringent hygiene standards, driving the need for pest control. Renovation and modernization efforts have displaced a significant number of rodents from older structures, prompting them to move into urban areas and creating an increased need for rodent management. As a result, demand for rodenticides is expected to remain strong in North America throughout the forecast period.

 

Europe:

Europe represented a significant revenue share in the rodenticides market in 2022. The region’s rising rodent population is expected to continue driving demand for pest control solutions. With over 6,000 pest control companies, the market in Europe is highly fragmented. Factors such as deteriorating drain infrastructure and improper waste management contribute to rodent infestations. However, strict government regulations around pest control methods, especially concerning the risk of secondary kills (where non-target species are affected), are likely to restrain industry growth, particularly in areas where chemical rodenticides are heavily regulated.

 

Central South America:

The rodenticides market in Central and South America is projected to grow at a notable rate over the forecast period. Countries like Brazil and Colombia face significant agricultural losses due to rodent activity, which damages crops, reduces food production, and spreads diseases. Rodents are responsible for considerable crop destruction, posing both economic and health risks. These factors are anticipated to drive demand for rodenticides in the region, with a particular focus on protecting agricultural productivity and managing rodent-borne health risks.
