Industry Insights

The global home and garden pesticides market size was valued at USD 6.8 billion in 2018 and is expected to register a CAGR of 3.8% from 2019 to 2025. Growing trend of home gardening and increased expenditure on lawn and garden maintenance are the key factors boosting growth of this market. In addition, wide usage of herbicides to avoid labor-intensive work of removing unwanted plants is likely to support the market growth.

Organic pesticides, in particular, have high demand as they eco-friendly, are less toxic, and can degrade quickly. Moreover, organic pesticides support the growth of beneficial insects, such as honey bees. On the other hand, exposure to pesticides can cause headache, nausea, excessive eye watering, and dizziness.

These factors may negatively affect the overall market growth. However, rising awareness about the adverse effects of chemical-based pesticides are compelling the manufacturers to focus on R&D, which will also have a positive impact on the global industry. Thus, constant product developments in the market are likely to propel the growth.

North America is estimated to be the largest regional market over the forecasted period due to rising trend of home gardening. Whereas, Asia Pacific is estimated to be the fastest-growing region from 2019 to 2025 due to improving standards of living and rising number of residential construction activities in emerging countries.

Rising concerns about pest-borne diseases and household insects, such as bed bugs and red fire ants, are projected to boost the demand for pesticides, thereby augmenting the segment growth.
