Aerosol Insecticide Market

Aerosol Insecticide Market Outlook (2024 to 2034)

As stated in the recently updated report by Fact.MR, the global aerosol insecticides market is estimated to reach a worth of US$ 90.26 billion in 2024 and is slated to expand at a CAGR of 5.1% to reach US$ 148.51 billion by 2034.

Aerosol insecticides are specially designed to control insect pests in indoor and outdoor environments. They are popular among more consumers for their ease of use, effectiveness, and ability to cover a large area quickly. These insecticides typically contain pyrethroids, a class of synthetic insecticides that are designed to mimic the insecticidal properties of natural pyrethrins, which are derived from chrysanthemum flowers. Pyrethroids are generally considered safe for humans and pets when used as per instructions, but they are very toxic to aquatic organisms and beneficial for insects such as bees and butterflies.

Insect growth regulators, residual insecticide sprays, and contact insecticide sprays are three popular forms of aerosol insecticides. Among these, contact sprays are considered more effective in scenarios that require spraying insecticide directly onto the target for quick action. Moreover, the low tolerance to pests is increasing the demand for home insecticides.

The market is growing because of expanding home and personal care industries. Several personal care and home items, such as oven cleansers, deodorants, hair sprays, shaving gels, insecticides, furniture polish, fabric care, air fresheners, and leather care, are examples of the several uses for aerosol. The automotive, paints and varnishes, industrial, medicinal, veterinary, and food sectors are among other applications. The market for personal care products is analyzed to grow as new product forms and gender-specific products are introduced. The market is further expanding by the increasing usage of aerosol propellants in deodorants & antiperspirants, styling mousses, and hair sprays.

Businesses including S. C. Johnson & Son, Inc. have been working constantly to encourage people to use repellant and highlight its advantages. Consequently, the demand for aerosols in the home market is increasing because of rising repellent usage.

What is Making the Market for Aerosol Insecticides Flourish Well?

“Rising Requirements for Quick Relief from Insect Infestations”

These insecticides are significant as they are providing immediate relief from insect infestations, particularly in the case of flying insects such as mosquitoes, flies, and gnats. They are also used to control crawling insects such as ants, cockroaches, and spiders.

Several contact sprays include active ingredients that contain synthetic toxins that target the insects’ central nervous system. However, several contact sprays do not eradicate insect eggs and the insect cycle continues. Research studies concluded that some insects are becoming resistant to these active ingredients and remain unaffected despite regular sprays, thus requiring a different course of action.

“Growing Need to Tackle Insecticide-borne Diseases”

A certain species of mosquito transmits malaria, a blood disease, from one person to another. The World Health Organization estimates that 3.4 billion people in 91 countries are at risk of contracting malaria and becoming unwell. Insecticide application is the most effective and extensively used method of controlling malaria-carrying insects, according to WHO. This is an important aspect positively affecting the aerosol insecticide market size.

“Escalating Demand for Food Security and Protection of Harvest from Pests”

As the global population continues to grow, there is an urgent requirement to increase food production across the globe. However, pests and weeds destroy crops, causing minimal production. Several farmers choose aerosol insecticides to keep pests and weeds from destroying their crops. The need for growing food production is leading farmers to adopt insecticides. This is one of the key factors contributing to the overall expansion of the aerosol insecticide market growth.

“Longer Life of Residual Aerosol Insecticides Stimulating Demand”

In contrast to contact sprays, which are used on the target insects directly, these insecticides are applied to surfaces. As insects come into contact with the area that is been treated with residual aerosol insecticides, they are destroyed. On the contrary, insect growth regulator aerosol pesticides work by destroying the insects' reproductive systems and altering their life cycles.

To protect humans and plants from several diseases, insecticides are widely utilized in agricultural lands, urban green areas, and public health programs. Insecticides include larvicides and ovicides for application against insect larvae and eggs respectively. They are used to protect plants from pests, diseases, weeds, and people from vector-borne diseases such as dengue fever, malaria, and schistosomiasis.

What is a Major Drawback Hindering Market Opportunities?

“Negative Impact on Environment Leading to Losing Market Value”

Aerosol insecticides are having negative impacts on the environment, particularly on non-target species such as bees and butterflies. Thereby, there is growing pressure on brands to develop more environment-friendly products. Pests develop resistance to insecticides over time, and these insecticides are no exception. This means that brands need to continually develop new and more effective products to stay ahead of pest resistance.

While they are generally considered safe for humans and pets when used as directed, there is always a risk of accidental exposure or misuse. Brands need to ensure that their products are clearly labeled and consumers are educated on their proper use. The market is highly competitive, with several brands vying for market share. Brands need to continually innovate and differentiate their products to stay ahead of the competition.

Country-wise Analysis

Insects are something which is around the world, as a result, the market for insecticides, including aerosol is prominently used in several countries including the United States, China, Canada, and Mexico. The United States market in North America is analyzed to hold a strong aerosol insecticide market share.

Competitive Landscape

Key players in the aerosol insecticides market are switching to new tactics and introducing novel products including insect repellant and home insecticides.

• Procter & Gamble received a patent in March 2024 for an aerosol packaging design that utilizes adsorbent materials as propellants to keep the pressure inside the package constant for the duration of the package. To provide pressure stability, the design incorporates a bag, valve, and container with an adsorption matrix of carbon dioxide and a Metal-Organic Framework (MOF). With a grant share of 52% as of January 2024, this innovation demonstrates Procter & Gamble's emphasis on patenting techniques and nano-emulsion cosmetics.
• All deodorant cans in the selection of NIVEA, Hidrofugal, 8X4, and Hansaplast in Europe would weigh 11.6% less and contain around 50% recycled aluminum, according to a September 2023 announcement from Beiersdorf. As a result, the emission of CO2 in aerosol cans will drop by almost 58%. This translates to a yearly decrease of about 30 tons of CO2.
• A joint venture agreement was signed in October 2023 between Envases Group and Colep Packaging for the establishment of an aerosol packaging facility in Mexico. With this production unit, the new factory is planning to create three aluminum aerosol lines for clients in Mexico and Central America.
