Larvicides Market by Control Method, Target, End-Use Sector and Region - Global Forecast to 2023 - ResearchAndMarkets.com
The "Larvicides Market by Control Method (Biocontrol Agents, Chemical Agents, Insect Growth Regulators), Target (Mosquitoes, Flies), End-use Sector (Public Health, Agricultural, Commercial, Residential, Livestock), and Region - Global Forecast to 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The larvicides market is projected to reach USD 952.7 million by 2023, from USD 751.6 million in 2018, at a CAGR of 4.86%
An increase in the occurrence of diseases, particularly in developing countries, has increased the focus on the control of pests, worldwide. Growing awareness about environmental sustainability and the adoption of IPM practices has contributed significantly to the demand for larvicides since IPM focuses on habitat management and the control of immature stages (egg, larva, and pupa) before the targets emerge as adults. However, factors such as issues related to the increasing incidences of resistance against larvicides in mosquitoes pose a challenge for the overall market.
Diseases transmitted by mosquitoes have become a major concern in Asian and South American countries. In Africa, mosquito bites can be lethal, as they are vectors for many diseases such as malaria, dengue, and chikungunya. Climate changes caused by global warming and disease outbreaks such as the Zika fever have left the European region susceptible to the expansion of the mosquito population. These concerns are expected to strengthen the implementation of mosquito control programs and the usage of larvicides.
The chemical agents including organophosphates dominated the larvicides market in 2017, since they are extensively used for vector control programs, globally. Developing countries especially rely on larvicides, including temephos and malathion, for the treatment of water infested with mosquitoes. Chemical larvicides also include neonicotinoids, pyrethroids, and carbamates. These are broad-spectrum larviciding solutions that find application in agriculture, residential, and commercial spaces and have longer residual control when the environmental conditions are favorable. Thus, the chemical agents dominated the larvicides market in 2017.
