Saudi Arabia Pest Control Market Trends:

Increased Demand from Urban Residential Areas

In Saudi Arabia rapid urbanization and rising population density have led to a noticeable increase in pest-related issues in residential areas. According to the industry reports, as of May 2025, Saudi Arabia's population reached 34,461,055 with a mid-year estimate of 34,566,328. Urban dwellers constitute 92.12% or 31,842,626 individuals. As more people move into high-density housing and apartment complexes the chances of pest infestations such as cockroaches, ants, termites, and rodents have grown significantly. Shared walls, limited waste management, and close proximity to food sources create ideal conditions for pest activity. Homeowners and tenants are increasingly turning to professional pest control services to ensure safe and hygienic living environments. Additionally, the heightened awareness of health risks associated with pests including allergies, contamination, and disease transmission is prompting regular pest management. Many residential societies are now adopting preventive pest control as part of routine property maintenance. This trend is a key driver in the Saudi Arabia pest control market especially in rapidly growing urban regions like Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam.

Adoption of Eco-Friendly and Non-Toxic Solutions

Saudi Arabia is increasingly adopting eco-friendly and non-toxic pest control solutions as customers and companies become more environmentally aware. Conventional chemical treatments are being substituted or complemented with green solutions that are less hazardous to human health, pets, and the environment. For instance, in April 2025, First Mills in Saudi Arabia adopted a 100% poison-free pest control method becoming a leader in sustainable practices. Partnering with Termico GmbH they implemented Heat Treatment technology across their facilities enhancing efficiency and aligning with their sustainability mission while ensuring food safety and operational continuity. Such solutions include botanical pesticides, biological control agents, heat treatments, and integrated pest management (IPM) practices. This change is most noticeable in industries such as hospitality, healthcare, and food processing where hygiene and safety protocols are strictly regulated. The use of sustainable pest control methods also aligns with national environmental goals and regulatory encouragement for safer chemical usage. As awareness about long-term ecological impact and indoor air quality grows, demand for green pest control is rising. This trend is playing a crucial role in driving Saudi Arabia pest control market growth, particularly among urban and commercial customers.
