Drivers and Restraints -

The arrival of pest control software accelerates growth

Increasing number of deadly vector-borne diseases is the major factor driving the growth of the pest control market. The World Health Organization says vector-borne diseases cause 700,000 deaths annually, accounting for 17% of all infectious diseases worldwide. Diseases caused by pests increase the need for various pest control methods such as biological, mechanical and chemical methods, thereby promoting growth. In addition, increasing urbanization and industrialization, which promoted increased construction activity, also improved the sanitary standards of the population. This has further increased the need for pest control.

The downside is that the use of pesticides and insecticides is closely monitored by various agencies such as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the government. They impose strict regulations on the use of lethal chemicals and highly toxic pest control products and services that can pose a threat to the environment. This could hinder the overall market in the coming years.

Nevertheless, there is currently an increasing trend in the adoption of pest control software, thereby creating lucrative growth opportunities for the market in the future.
