The global insect repellent market is expected to generate $ 9,615.7 million by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 6.8% from 2019 to 2026. Insect repellent is a chemical substance applied to skin, clothing, or other surfaces, which discourages insects from landing or climbing on that surface. Insect repellents help prevent and control the outbreak of insect-borne diseases such as malaria, zika, Lyme disease, dengue, bubonic plague, river blindness, and west Nile fever. As consumers have become extremely health conscious these days, the insect repellent market demand has witnessed a significant growth.
Rising consumer awareness regarding insect borne diseases due to increasing waste from commercials facilities or households is anticipated to propel the insect repellent market share growth during the forecast period. Furthermore, rising insect borne diseases due to increasing number of mosquitoes has positively impacted the insect repellent market growth. Regions such as North America, Asia Pacific, and Europe have witnessed a large number of cases of dengue, malaria, and chikungunya. For instance, according to a survey, the number of cases has increased to 2 million in 2017 from 2016 across the countries. Increasing global warming has also led to a rise in the insect borne diseases due to increase in the number of insects. This, in turn, increases the demand for repellents. Government initiatives to control the effects of insects in the surroundings is also likely to impact the growth during the forecast period. For instance, government has come up with integrated pest management that aims at keeping pests under economic level. Increase in the global waste is also impacting the growth of insect repellent market, as it leads to increase in the number of insect borne diseases. For instance, according to the WHO, the global waste is anticipated to grow by 70.0% by 2050. Rise in awareness regarding the benefits of insect repellents, particularly in rural areas, is expected to drive the insect repellent market. In addition, development of commercial repellent products containing plant-based ingredients have gained increasing popularity among consumers, as these are commonly perceived as “safe” in comparison to synthetic repellents.
For instance, Godrej has come up with natural mosquito repellent fabric roll on, which is good for children. Although, some products such as sprays have adverse effects on health due to high content of DEET in them. Products such as repellent liquids also have some negative effects on health. According to a study conducted by the U.S. national library of medicine, people reported different health problems such as breathing problem, itching in eyes, and headache after using insect repellents. Manufacturers are coming up with various products that have less harmful effects on human. This, in turn, is anticipated to boost the insect repellent market size significantly during the forecast period.
