The Middle East and Africa larvicides market size is expected to reach USD 0.04 billion in 2024 and reach USD 0.05 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 3.61% from 2024 to 2029.
Insecticides that are used to specifically target larvae of insects, preventing them from growing into insects, are known as larvicides. A mosquito is the most common foe for humans, and larvicides are most used against it. Different larvicides kill larvae in different ways. They may be growth regulators, contact poisons, and stomach poisons.
Biological agents such as Bacillus species are also used to kill the larvae. Once the insects are exposed to the bacterium, they cannot digest the consumed food and eventually perish. Natural agents such as neem oil are very effective against insects. Research shows the efficiency rate as more than 95%. The application methods are to be carefully selected for applying larvicides. Spraying liquid larvicides is the most common method used. Care should be taken so that harmful chemicals do not mix with stagnant water, which might be consumed by humans in the future.
An increasing number of diseases, such as malaria and dengue, the organisms being spread by mosquitoes, are the major factors driving the larvicides market. Increasing government investments in the prevention of mosquitoes in residential areas, growing awareness among the population regarding the diseases spread by various insects, and the availability of several options to kill insects in the development stage are propelling market growth. However, stringent regulations on the usage of larvicides and toxicity issues are restraining market growth.
Synthetic larvicides hold the largest market share due to their easy availability in commercial scale. Due to the growing environmental concerns, the revenue of natural and biological larvicides is rapidly growing in the market.
Governments contribute to the majority of the revenue in the larvicides market. It is due to prevent several diseases that might be spread by insects.
On the basis of region, the Larvicides market is analyzed under the Middle East and Africa regions. Africa region leads to the larvicides market. It is due to the large insect population in this region. Africa is the home for a number of diseases that can spread through insects. Hence, the demand for larvicides is increasing to prevent these diseases.
Valent BioSciences, Central Life Sciences, Bayer Environmental Science, BASF, Clarke, Kadant GranTek, Univa, UPL, Summit Chemical. These are the market players that are dominating the Middle East And Africa larvicides market.
