Driver: Growth in instances of disease outbreaks driving public health initiatives

During the last decade, there have been several outbreaks of life-threatening diseases, such as chikungunya, influenza, H1N1 virus, Zika virus, and dengue, which are mostly spread by insect vectors. The latest outbreak caused by insect vectors was the Zika virus outbreak (transmitted by A. aegypti and A. albopictus) in the Americas in 2017. Outbreaks and diseases differ on the basis of the region as well; for instance, the following table displays the distribution of diseases transmitted by insects and ticks. In order to prevent disease outbreaks, many government authorities have regulations on public health and sanitation in place. Mandatory audit for certifications such as ISO 9001 and ISO 22000 has also become a common requirement for commercial and industrial organizations. These certifications have a compulsory clause of insect control to be carried out yearly, half-yearly, or quarterly, and those companies that do not follow these mandates must face penalties or could even result in them shutting down operations.

Government initiatives, through public health campaigns and legislation, play an integral part in the management of pests and other insects. These initiatives involve the development of strategies that aim to improve the efficacy, cost-effectiveness, environmental impact, and sustainability of insecticides. With precautionary steps taken on food safety in the food processing industry, food handling areas, and warehouses, the need to employ pest management techniques through service providers has become essential.

By control method, the chemicals segment dominated the pest control market in 2018.

hemical pesticides, which are toxic or poisonous to the pests, are used for pest control in Asia Pacific. The use of chemical pesticides is widespread due to their relatively low cost, simplicity of application, effectiveness, availability, and stability. These factors, coupled with the growing economic conditions across Asia, encourage the adoption of chemicals to a larger extent. Chemical pesticides are generally fast-acting, which helps minimize their impact on the surrounding environment. Local agencies are adopting new technologies in deploying chemical solutions, including the use of drone-based sprays, to maximize the area to be covered.

Insects are the major pest type driving the growth in the Asia Pacific pest control market during the forecast

The climate across the Asia Pacific, especially in Southeast and Western Asia, is conducive for the breeding of many insects. Warmer temperatures are generally the breeding grounds for insects, supporting their faster development and prolonged survival. Termites and mosquitoes are among the major pests in the Asia Pacific region and are expected to fuel the demand for insect pest control products and services during the forecast period. The demand for rodent control in Asia Pacific is also gaining prominence in the wake of the stringent regulations and safety standards in the commercial sector. Rodents are also a major problem in the Asia Pacific market. Countries such as China, India, and Japan are witnessing large-scale rodent infestation in the urban and rural areas. The rodent infestation in the region can be traced to a multitude of factors such as flooding, urban expansion, lack of hygiene conditions and open drains.

Asia Pacific region is projected to witness the highest growth in the pest control market by 2025.

The Asia Pacific region is among the fastest-growing regions for pest control. The region’s high concentration of urban population and urbanization poses a strong potential for pest control service providers. The effects of climate change and in certain cases, the negligence toward sanitary conditions in urban slums has resulted in multiple disease outbreaks. Improvements in legislation and policies surrounding the requirement of pest control have benefitted pest control service providers in the Asia Pacific region. Additionally, the region has also been susceptible to many pest-borne disease outbreaks in the last two decades. From the last quarter of 2015, there has been a significant number of cases related to Zika virus in the region. Zika virus is a mosquito-transmitted Flavivirus and has been detected in several countries in the Asia Pacific region, which include Thailand, the Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam, and Indonesia. According to a WHO report (October 2016), the Asia Pacific region is highly likely to continue to report new cases and possibly new outbreaks of Zika virus. Thus, with increasing outbreaks of diseases due to insects, the demand for pest control services is projected to increase in the region.

The key service providers in this market include Terminix (US), Ecolab (US), Atalian Servest (France), Truly Nolen (US), Rollins Inc. (US), Rentokil Initial Plc (UK), and Ecolab (US).
