Based on applications, the market is segregated into commercial & industrial, residential, livestock farms, and others. The commercial & industrial segment held major market share in 2020 and is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period, owing to increased demand for competent pest control solutions, particularly in the food manufacturing and hospitality industries in order to keep cockroaches, bedbugs, flies, and mosquitoes away. For commercial and industrial enterprises, mandatory audits for certifications such as ISO 9001 and ISO 22000 have also become a necessity. These certificates include a requirement for insect management to be performed on a yearly, half-yearly, or quarterly basis and companies who fail to comply with these regulations may face penalties or even be forced to close their business.
In terms of insect types, the market is fragmented into mosquitoes, rodents, termites, bedbugs, and cockroaches. The termites segment dominated the market and held around 32.01% of the total market share in 2020. Termites are wood-eating insects that are commonly seen in homes. Termites are often referred to as white ants, owing to the fact that they are not closely linked to ants. They are dangerous, when they eat and sometimes destroy, human-important wooden buildings or plant stuff. Termites kill and eat plant matter and cellulose, which can be found in the form of soil, wood, manure, or leaf litter. Termites are large detritivores, especially in subtropical and tropical areas, and their recycling of wood and plant debris is extremely beneficial to the environment. Termites can sting and bite humans, but the wounds are not dangerous. As a result, those who live in termite-infested homes may get allergic reactions or asthma attacks.
On the basis of control methods, the market is divided into chemical, biological, and physical. The chemical segment is estimated to grow at a rapid pace during the forecast period owing to its low cost, great results, ease of application, and stability. These reasons, in combination with improving economic situations in various parts of the world, are driving the use of chemicals to a greater extent. Chemical pesticides are usually quick-acting, reducing their environmental impact. To increase the area covered, local agencies are using innovative methods for administering chemical treatments, such as the use of drone-based sprays.
In terms of regions, the market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. North America dominates the global market with around 36% of the total revenue owing to rising commercial and residential constructions. The United States has the major share of the insect pest control market in North America. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 640,000 instances of insect-borne disorders were reported in the United States between 2004 and 2016. As a result, the demand for insect pest control has increased in recent years.
