Electric Bug Zapper Market

Electric Bug Zapper Market Overview

The global Electric Bug Zapper Market size was valued at USD 83.46 million in 2023 and is predicted to reach USD 106.18 million by 2030 with a CAGR of 3.50% from 2024-2030. An electric bug zapper is a device designed to attract and kill insects, such as mosquitoes, flies, and other flying pests, using an electric grid or trap. It typically consists of a housing with an ultraviolet (UV) light source that attracts insects, and an electrified grid or mesh that delivers a lethal shock when the insects come into contact with it. Electric bug zappers are commonly used indoors and outdoors to control insect populations and provide relief from nuisance pests.

Market Dynamics and Trends

The increasing awareness among individuals concerning vector-borne diseases, fuelled by the rising incidence of such illnesses, is driving the growth of the market. These devices are utilized to eradicate vectors such as mosquitoes, flies, and other flying insects, contributing to the market's growth. According to a report published by Target Malaria, in December 2023, the global malaria cases rise from 5 million, in the year 2021 to 249 million in 2022. Additionally, the global death from malaria rises by 6% since 2019. Thus, the increasing disease along with the number of deaths rises the concern of people around the world towards adopting proper precaution measures, thereby propelling the demand for bug zapper racket market.

Also, the increasing adoption of bug zappers in critical manufacturing sectors such as semiconductor fabrication units and pharmaceutical production is boosting the market expansion. The efficiency of these sensitive industries heavily depends on the precision of their output, and any interference from external factors such as insects can compromise their accuracy. Therefore, bug zappers play a vital role in eliminating unwanted flying insects, thereby elevating product quality and ensuring uninterrupted productivity in these sectors.

Furthermore, the rising trend in the wellness sector and the expansion of outdoor living spaces, including gardens, spas, outdoor pools, and decks, are driving up the demand for bug zappers as it plays a crucial role to create a distraction-free environment. The devices improve the comfort levels of these outdoor environments by efficiently reducing the presence of flying insects. Consequently, with the rising trends of outdoor living spaces the demand for bug zappers market increases and thereby propelling market growth. 

However, the noise and unpleasant odour emitted by bug zappers when insects are electrocuted is a restraining factor for consumers to adopt the use of bug zappers, particularly in residential areas.
On the other hand, integration of internet of things (IoT) within insects trapping devices such as project premonition, which are embedded with artificial neural network (ANN), capable of trapping insects more precisely is expected to create future opportunities for the market. 

Market Segmentations and Scope of the Study

The electric bug zapper market share is segmented on the basis of type, application, distribution channel, and region. On the basis of type the market is segmented into electric grid zappers, electric fly swatter, sticky traps, ultrasonic bug repellents, UV light traps, and heat traps. On the basis of application, the market is bifurcated into residential, commercial, and industrial. On the basis of distribution channel, the market is further divided into online and offline. Geographic breakdown and analysis of each of the aforesaid segments include regions comprising North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and RoW.

Geographical Analysis

North America holds the dominant share of electric bug zapper market at present and is expected to continue its dominance during the forecast period. This is driven by the growing urbanization and the expansion of residential areas into natural habitats, resulting in increasing encounters with insects, thereby propelling the demand for the product. According to a report published by Our World in Data, the percentage of the population residing in the USA is growing rapidly, reaching around 86% in 2023, and is expected to reach 89% in the year 2050. This increase in the rate of urbanization propels the growth of the market as it provides an effective means of controlling insect populations in urban areas, thus fuelling the growth of the market.

Moreover, the surge in vector-borne diseases, such as malaria and dengue within the region is further propelling the growth of the market. According to a report published by Vector Disease Control International, in the year 2022, 1073 people were affected by dengue in the U.S. compared to 117 cases in the year 2021. This increase in diseases transmitted by insects emphasizes the need to protect people from bugs, leading to a higher demand for electric bug zappers, thereby propelling the growth of the market.

On the other hand, Asia Pacific region is showing a steadily rise in the electric bug zapper market due to the rise in food & beverages manufacturing sector in the region. In the food processing units electric bug zapper play a vital role by providing effective insect control, ensuring proper hygiene and quality standards of foods.

According to a report published by APEDA Agri Exchange, in April 2023, the ready-to-eat (RTE) food market in India is expected to increase by USD 751.43 million between 2022 and 2026, with a growth rate of 18.63%. This increase in food production rises concerns to manage the standard quality of processed food, thus increasing the demand for bug zappers.

Furthermore, rise in agriculture sector in countries such as Japan, India, and China are further propelling the growth of the market in the region. Bug zapper plays a vital role in protecting the crops from insects and pests. According to a report published by the Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare under Government of India, in October 2023, India produced foodgrains of volume 329.687 million tons in the year 2022-23 compared to 315.616 million tons in the previous year. This rise in agriculture sector in the region surges the demand for bug zapper to protect the crops from pests and insects, thereby driving the growth of the market.
