The North America insect pest control market report highlights key factors contributing to the North America insect pest control market progress, and prominent players along with their developments in the market.

Increasing health risk awareness and public health concerns, particularly due to the rising incidence of vector-borne diseases and infestations across residential, commercial, and public spaces, drive the North America insect pest control market. Governing bodies such as the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and Health Canada have intensified efforts to mitigate the spread of Lyme disease, West Nile virus disease, Zika virus infection, and dengue, among other infections caused by insects, which have led to an increasing trajectory of cases across states and provinces in North American countries. For instance, in 2023, the CDC reported that cases of mosquito and tick-borne illnesses have tripled in the US since 2004, prompting urgent investment in pest control initiatives at both the federal and local levels. Various public health agencies promote integrated pest management (IPM) practices and public awareness campaigns with expanded coverage to educate communities on safe and effective pest control. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) supports these efforts by regulating the registration and the use of pesticides under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), ensuring that products in the market meet health and safety standards. Similarly, Health Canada's Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) has reinforced the evaluation process to prioritize low-toxicity pest control alternatives, supporting the demand for eco-conscious products. Municipal governments have started launching community-wide vector control programs across North America. For example, in 2024, the New York City Department of Health expanded its mosquito surveillance program, deploying larvicide treatments in strong drains and public parks to curb West Nile virus outbreaks. These proactive health measures and heightened consumer awareness about disease prevention have boosted the demand for professional pest control services and DIY products. The convergence of public health policies, regulatory vigilance, and increased risk perception among consumers results in the demand for innovative and compliant pest control solutions, in turn bolstering the North America insect pest control market size.
