Triton’s research report estimates that the Latin America rodent control market is expected to gain revenue at a CAGR of 4.02% during the forecast years 2024-2032.
The rodent control market in Latin America is advancing steadily, fueled by increasing urban populations and the pressing need to address rodent-borne health risks. Governments and municipalities are adopting more structured pest management strategies, integrating modern techniques and public health initiatives to mitigate the impact of infestations. Enhanced awareness among communities about the dangers posed by rodents has also driven the adoption of preventive measures, contributing to the growth of professional pest control services in this region.
The countries studied in this region include Brazil, Mexico, and Rest of Latin America.
Brazil captured the highest share in the rodent control market in 2023.
- In Brazil, over 10,000 severe leptospirosis cases were reported during epidemics in urban slums, highlighting a pressing public health concern linked to rodent infestations.
- Initiatives like the National Program for the Control of Rodents implemented by the Center for Control of Zoonosis (CCZ) in Salvador demonstrate strong government commitment to mitigating rodent-related health risks, driving demand for pest control services.
- The increasing risk of rodent infestations causes significant economic losses across key sectors, further emphasizing the necessity of robust rodent control measures. Hence, the combined efforts of public health priorities and economic imperatives expand the scope of the rodent control market in the country.
Rodent Control Market Forecast for Mexico
The rodent control market in Mexico is driven by a combination of public health concerns, urbanization, and the agricultural sector’s vulnerability to infestations. With over 80% of Mexico’s population living in urban areas, dense housing and inadequate waste management systems create ideal conditions for rodent proliferation. Similarly, in rural areas, where agriculture accounts for about 3.5% of GDP, rodent infestations lead to substantial crop losses, threatening food security and livelihoods. Government initiatives and awareness campaigns, coupled with increased investments in pest management solutions, further support the growth of rodent control efforts in Mexico.
The rodent control market is segmented based on type and application. Based on type, it is further classified into mechanical, biological, chemical, and other types. The other types of rodent control products include repellents, which help in deterring rodents from entering or restricting them within a given space. These methods work by emitting odors or sounds that rodents find unpleasant. Options include ultrasonic and electronic devices, as well as natural solutions like peppermint oil.
