The global Rodenticides Market is predicted to experience a 5.8% compound annual growth rate, leading to a revenue surpassing USD 7.1 billion by 2027. This thriving industry, valued at USD 5.4 billion in 2022, is on a path of substantial growth. The rising concern for environmental pollution and public health hazards posed by vector-borne diseases is fueling the global demand for rodent control services. The growing population, coupled with the overexploitation and degradation of limited resources, is contributing to the degradation of the ecosystem, leading to global warming and temperature rise. These factors, in turn, are indirectly strengthening pests’ ability to survive in different seasons, as evidenced by the migration of tropical pests away from the equatorial region due to global warming.

Drivers: Displacement of rodents due to urbanization

Urbanization is one of the key factors encouraging land use, particularly in developing countries, where 90% of the people are expected to be residents of urban areas. Moreover, urbanization is expected to impact public health due to the shift of rural pathogens adapting to the urban environment and increasing their number.

According to an article by Rentokil, it has been observed that the construction of new buildings is increasingly displacing the rat population across regions. As per the report by Building and Construction Authority (BCA), the need for construction in the country is increasing. Some construction activities in rural areas disturb the nesting area of rodents, such as rats, and thus encourage them to relocate to another urbanized location.

According to a recent article posted in Frontiers, Norway, black rats are considered the urban rats that inhabit cities worldwide. They adapt to environmental changes caused by humans and thus survive easily. Hence, the increase in the levels of urbanization creates the need for rodent control, majorly in the urban areas of developing regions.

Opportunities: Increase in demand for rodent pest control services from the hospitality and tourism sectors

With the growing interest in recreational activities and aesthetics among consumers, the demand for maintenance services to control rodent pests and their possible damages are the key factors that are projected to drive the market growth for rodenticides shortly. The entertainment sector, warehouses, construction companies, the food service segment, pharmaceutical companies, and the hospitality sector play an important role in encouraging the demand for pest control products & services, particularly for rodents. The economic losses due to the damages caused by pests, such as rodents, affect the tourism industry. The growth of the hospitality and entertainment sectors in urban areas due to the high purchasing power among consumers has driven the demand for rodent control products.

The Asia Pacific region is projected to witness the highest growth rate in the rodenticides market, with a value of USD 1.1 billion in 2021; it is projected to reach USD 1.6 billion by 2027 at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period.

The Asia Pacific region is among the fastest-growing markets for rodenticides. The high concentration of urban population poses a high growth potential for rodent control service providers. The effects of climatic changes and, in some instances, the negligence toward sanitary conditions in urban slums have resulted in multiple disease outbreaks. Improvements in legislation and policies surrounding the requirement of pest control have benefitted rodenticides manufacturers in the Asia Pacific region.

A majority of Asian countries are adopting mechanical modes of rodent control. However, due to the increased awareness of the effectiveness of chemical rodenticides, the market is projected to witness higher growth in the region. According to the rodent distribution map provided by National Geographic, the rodent population is concentrated in a few countries, such as China and India. With the growing epidemics in these countries, eradicating the rodent population is of prime importance. Government initiatives supporting public hygiene are one of the major factors encouraging the growth of the rodenticides market in the Asia Pacific.
