Rodenticide Global Market Report 2024

The rodenticide market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $6.64 billion in 2023 to $7.29 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%. The expansion observed during the historical period can be attributed to the increased awareness about sanitation and hygiene, a rise in demand from the hospitality and tourism sectors, an increase in construction activities, heightened damage caused by rodents, and an uptick in vector-borne diseases.

The rodenticide market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $10.91 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.6%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the growing agricultural industry, the increasing number of warehouses, rising urbanization, and the growing issue of food waste. Key trends expected during the forecast period include the adoption of fast-acting rodenticides to swiftly eradicate rodent infestations, the introduction of direct-to-consumer (D2C) rodenticide platforms, specifically targeting specialized pest control companies or licensed professionals due to safety concerns. Additionally, there is a focus on product innovations and the development of new solutions to strengthen market positioning, along with a concentration on partnerships and collaborations to enhance product portfolios and expand geographical presence.

The rodenticide market is anticipated to experience growth, propelled by the expansion of the agricultural industry. The agricultural industry, encompassing enterprises engaged in cleaning, processing, storing, or packing agricultural products, extensively employs rodenticides to safeguard crops from rodent pests such as rats and mice. For instance, the United States Department of Agriculture reports an increase in soybean and corn plantations in the U.S. Additionally, the Indian agricultural sector is predicted to grow to USD 24 billion by 2025. Thus, the upward trajectory of the agricultural industry is a key factor driving the rodenticide market.

The growth of warehouses is poised to drive the rodenticide market in the foreseeable future. Warehouses play a crucial role in storing goods at various stages of the value chain, meeting end-user demands. The demand for warehouses has surged, driven by factors such as the COVID-19 lockdown, increased e-commerce activities, and a rise in internet shopping. A study by Interact Analysis predicts a significant increase in the global stock of warehouses by 2025 to address the demands of e-commerce. With the rise in the number of warehouses, there is a heightened risk of rodent infestations, fueling the demand for rodenticides.

The construction boom is a significant factor contributing to the growth of the rodenticides market in the forecast period. The increased construction of residential and commercial buildings, fueled by industrialization and urbanization, has led to a surge in rodenticide use. Rodents pose a threat to constructions, causing damage to wiring and walls. With construction activities on the rise globally, the need for rodenticides to protect buildings from rodent damage is expected to grow.

Product innovation is emerging as a notable trend in the rodenticide market, with companies focusing on developing effective solutions to control rodent infestations. BASF SE, for instance, launched an innovative rodenticide in April 2021 to address super-rat resistance in the UK. This product utilizes cholecalciferol as the active ingredient, providing an effective solution against super-rats. Major companies such as Syngenta are also introducing new rodenticide formulations, such as Talon Soft XT, to offer efficient control of challenging rodent populations.
