Expanding agricultural activities and growing pest control regulations are fueling the growth of the Rodenticides industry during the forecast period.

In 2023, North America is projected to capture the largest market share, holding 39% of the global rodenticides market. The region’s well-developed economy and rapid urbanization are key factors driving the demand for effective rodent control solutions. Expanding urban areas bring increased risks of rodent infestations, which in turn, elevate the need for rodenticides to prevent health hazards and property damage. Stringent pest control regulations in North America further fuel the adoption of high-quality rodenticides and professional services. Rising awareness of public health threats, particularly diseases like leptospirosis, hantavirus, and Lyme disease, also contribute to this demand, prompting both residential and commercial sectors to prioritize advanced rodent control. North America’s dominance in the market is reinforced by the presence of leading companies that invest heavily in R&D, focusing on creating safer, more efficient, and eco-friendly rodenticides. This commitment to innovation, coupled with increasing consumer demand for sustainable pest management, strengthens the region's leadership in the global rodenticides market. 

As global food demand rises, agricultural activities are expanding, creating a greater need for effective pest control to safeguard crops from rodent damage. Rodents pose significant threats to crop yields through consumption and contamination, leading to considerable financial losses for farmers. This drives the demand for rodenticides as an integral part of modern pest management practices. Advances in agricultural technologies, such as precision farming, have further accelerated rodenticide adoption, enabling farmers to apply rodenticides more effectively and with minimal environmental impact. Additionally, the rise of biopesticides offers sustainable alternatives to traditional chemical rodenticides, appealing to environmentally-conscious farmers and regulators. The agriculture sector’s adaptability to changing environmental conditions and evolving market trends drives ongoing innovation in rodenticide products, with manufacturers developing safer, more efficient solutions that align with modern agricultural practices.

The rapid growth of urban populations is driving a surge in residential construction, which in turn increases the need for effective rodent control solutions. Construction activities often disturb natural rodent habitats, displacing them and leading to infestations in newly built homes and neighborhoods. Rodents are drawn to construction materials such as insulation, wood, and wiring, posing risks not only to buildings but also to the health of residents and workers. As urbanization continues and construction projects expand, the demand for rodenticides in residential settings is expected to rise significantly. Post-construction, new housing developments become prime targets for rodent infestations, making ongoing rodent control measures essential. This trend sustains growth in the rodenticides market, as both the construction and residential sectors seek effective and proactive pest management solutions.
