The demand for plant-based insect repellents is increasing significantly, with reports indicating that the plant-powered pest control market is projected to reach $1.56 billion by 2025, up from $1.46 billion in 2024. In response to this trend, Wondercide has expanded its availability, now offering its plant-powered flea and tick products in over 1,400 Petco stores across the United States. This move aims to provide consumers with accessible options for protecting their pets and homes using natural ingredients.
Wondercide emphasizes its commitment to using plant-based solutions as alternatives to traditional pest control methods. The company states that its products are cruelty-free and produced in its manufacturing facilities located in Austin, Texas. These products are designed to be safe for families when used according to the instructions. Independent third-party labs have verified the effectiveness of Wondercide’s active ingredients.
The product range includes flea and tick sprays for dogs and cats in various scents, collars, spot-on treatments, and shampoos. Additionally, the company offers home sprays, flying insect traps, and yard sprays targeting ticks, fleas, mosquitoes, and other insects. Since its online launch in 2009 and subsequent expansion to platforms like Amazon in 2012, Wondercide has gained a customer base of over 19 million families who prefer its products to conventional pesticides. The partnership with Petco is seen as a strategic move to enhance accessibility and education regarding the benefits of Wondercide’s offerings.
