Mendham, N.J. - Specialty Products Consultants LLC (SPC) has completed a market research study of the urban pest control industry in Mexico and Brazil.

This "benchmark" study examines the nearly $1 billion market for pest control services in Mexico and Brazil. This revenue figure encompasses service revenue generated by all pest control companies for general pest control work (e.g., ants, cockroaches, fleas, etc.) and rodent control in residential and commercial establishments, as well as pre- and post-construction termite control work.

Mexico and Brazil were selected for this research as they represent the strongest economies in Latin America and can be expected to lead the way in technology utilization and expanding professional services.

Aventis (now Bayer Environmental Sciences) and FMC hold leading insecticide positions in Mexico with the synthetic pyrethroids Biothrine (deltamethrin) and Cynoff  (cypermethrin). BASF's Storm (flocoumafen) rodenticide is the market leader for control of mice and rats in both commercial and residential settings in Mexico.

In Brazil, Syngenta dominates the insecticide market with Demand (lambda-cyhalothrin). Aventis' Kothrine (deltamethrin) and Dow AgroSciences' Dursban (chlorpyrifos) are also popular. Syngenta's Klerat (brodifacoum) and Contrac (bromadiolone) marketed by Aventis are among the leading rodent control products in Brazil.
