Insects are a consistent problem in cities and the countryside across Brazil. The rise in the number of mosquitoes, bugs, and flies can be attributed to rapid urbanization in the country. According to URBANET, as of 2020, 89% of Brazil’s entire population lives in urban areas, while 6% live in favelas. The urban population is growing by 1.1% each year. According to the same source, a large number of cities in the country had a population of 300,000 to 1 million inhabitants in 2018.

There were 37 medium-sized cities with this population size, 19 cities with a population of one to five million, and two urban settlements with 10 million or more inhabitants. The seven largest cities in Brazil will become even bigger by 2030. Estimates indicate that the population of Brasilia, the capital of Brazil, is anticipated to grow by approximately one million over the next ten years, reaching a total of 5.19 million residents.

Furthermore, Brazil's tropical climate and diverse ecosystems create favorable conditions for the spread of disease-carrying insects, such as mosquitoes. Vector-borne diseases like dengue, Zika, chikungunya, and malaria pose a significant health risk to the population. This increased threat has increased the demand for insect repellents that prevent vector-borne diseases.
