Rodenticides Market

Market Overview:

The global rodenticides market size reached USD 1.2 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 1.6 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.02% during 2025-2033. The rising public health concern due to increasing vector-borne disease, widespread product utilization in the agriculture industry, and the recent development of bio-based rodenticides represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Rodenticides refer to chemical substances designed to kill or repel rodents, such as mice, rats, squirrels, gerbils, and porcupines. Anticoagulants, acute toxicants, non-toxic, and natural rodenticides are some commonly used types of rodenticides. They are commercially manufactured using synthetic chemicals, plant extracts, bacteria, molasses, gelatin, solvents, emulsifiers, surfactants, and preservatives. They function by impairing the rodent’s nervous system and interfering with its ability to clot blood, which causes internal bleeding, seizures, and quick death. Rodenticides are widely used in households, commercial buildings, parks, public gardens, farms, warehouses, food storage, and manufacturing facilities. They are cost-effective, versatile, and highly efficient chemicals that offer long-lasting protection, eliminate the need for frequent reapplications, and minimize adverse environmental impacts. They also aid in controlling rodent populations, preventing disease transmission, improving public health, protecting crops, and increasing food safety.

Rodenticides Market Trends:

The rising public health concern due to the increasing number of vector-borne diseases is one of the primary factors creating a positive outlook for the market growth. Rodenticides are widely used to eliminate rodent species that act as vectors for various diseases, such as hantavirus, salmonellosis, leptospirosis, Lassa fever, plague, murine typhus, rat-bite fever, and Lyme disease. In addition to this, the increasing damage caused by rodent attacks to properties, food storages, warehouses, and electrical installations is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, the widespread product utilization in the agriculture industry to prevent contamination, minimize economic loss, and protect various crops, such as corn, wheat, soybeans, grains, seeds, and hay, is providing an impetus to the market growth. Additionally, the recent development of bio-based rodenticides that are safe, eco-friendly, non-toxic, and manufactured using natural ingredients, such as bacteria, plant extracts, and peptides, is positively influencing the market growth. Besides this, the introduction of second-generation anticoagulant rodenticides, which are more potent, require a lower dose, provide long-lasting effects, and reduce the risk of environmental contamination and non-target animal exposure, is favoring the market growth. Moreover, the implementation of various government initiatives to ensure public safety and promote the development of highly effective rodenticides is supporting the market growth. Other factors, including emerging new rodent species, the increasing resistance against existing rodenticides, extensive research and development (R&D) activities, and the rising adoption of integrated pest management (IPM) practices, are anticipated to drive the market growth.
