Market Research Highlights Pest Control Business Profitability

Despite the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, several authoritative studies forecast strong profits for the pest control industry through 2020-2021 and beyond:

• According to MarketWatch forecasts, the pest control industry is predicted to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 5% until 2023. This echoes findings from Allied Market Research, which estimates the pest control market will grow from $18 billion in 2017 to $27 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 5.2%.
• According to the National Pest Management Association’s 2019-2020 annual report, 19,925 U.S. pest control companies generated $9,359,000,000 in revenue in 2019, up from $7.47 billion in annual billing in 2014, and $8.971 billion in 2018. If we divide total revenues equally among these active companies, we end up with $485,047 per pest control provider, which is a healthy annual income.

“Essential” Pest Control Businesses Enjoy “Pandemic-Proof” Profits

While the COVID-19 pandemic continues to wreak havoc on the economy and imperil many industries, pest control businesses have little to fear. On August 18th, 2020, the U.S. Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)’s designated pest control businesses as part of America’s “essential critical infrastructure,” which guarantees our business continuity, even in the event that lockdowns are reinstated.

And with American families spending more time at home “sheltering in place,” the demand for home pest treatments is on the rise. Likewise, as the COVID-19 pandemic puts health and infection-control on everybody’s mind, the demand for vector pest control is also going strong.
