If your attic insulation has been damaged or infested by pests, you’re not alone. Many homeowners face this issue, dealing with foul odors, potential health hazards, and decreased energy efficiency. At All U Need Pest Control, we offer a specialized solution—TAP® (Thermal Acoustical Pest Control) Insulation. This blown-in pest control insulation not only replaces old, contaminated material but also actively helps prevent future infestations. If your current insulation is in good condition, it can be added on top for pest protection and increasing the R-value of your home’s insulation.

TAP® Insulation can help with the following issues:

  • Foul Odors: Pest excrement and infestations from insects such as roaches and termites can produce persistent unpleasant smells.
  • Health Concerns: Exposure to pest-contaminated insulation can lead to respiratory issues, allergies, and other health problems.
  • Energy Loss: Compromised insulation allows air leaks, increasing your energy costs. Damaged insulation can cause problems with the air conditioning and heating equipment in your home.
  • Visible Damage: If you notice chewed-up insulation, nests, or other signs of pest activity, it’s time to replace it. Pest infestations can also cause damage to electrical systems such as wiring and junction boxes that are in contact with infested insulation.
  • Frequent Pest Infestations: Pests such as insects and rodents are drawn to deteriorating insulation as a nesting ground.
  • Sound Control: Professionally-installed insulation can reduce the natural noises coming from the attic space (such as noises from rainfall and HVAC equipment) and also between rooms if it is installed in the wall voids.

Our Pest Control Insulation Process

At All U Need Pest Control, we follow a thorough approach:

  1. Inspection: We assess the extent of damage and determine if partial or complete replacement is necessary. TAP® Insulation can be added on top of current insulation to provide a layer of pest protection as well as increase the R value of the insulation.
  2. Removal: Damaged insulation is carefully extracted to avoid spreading contaminants.
  3. Sanitization: The attic space is cleaned and disinfected to eliminate any remaining pathogens and bacteria.
  4. Installation: New TAP® Insulation is blown in, covering all areas efficiently and ensuring full protection. With pest control insulation we can achieve up to an R-60 in heat resistance.
  5. Sealing and Finishing: We ensure all entry points are sealed to prevent future infestations, adding an extra layer of pest control.

Benefits of TAP® Insulation

  • Pest Resistance: Borate treatment repels common attic pests, reducing infestations over time. This makes TAP® the premier pest control insulation solution available in the industry.
  • Energy Efficiency: Reduces heating and cooling costs by enhancing insulation and preventing energy loss.
  • Sound Reduction: Minimizes outside noise, creating a quieter and more comfortable living environment.
  • Eco-Friendly: Made from recycled materials, making it a sustainable and environmentally responsible choice.
  • Longevity: Unlike traditional insulation that degrades over time, TAP® Insulation has a longer lifespan and retains its effectiveness over its entire lifetime.

The Connection Between Insulation and Health

Poor insulation not only impacts energy efficiency but also poses health risks. When insulation is contaminated by pests, it can harbor dangerous bacteria and allergens. Studies from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicate that exposure to rodent droppings can lead to diseases like Hantavirus and Salmonella. Ensuring proper blow-in insulation replacement can mitigate these risks, providing a healthier home environment.

Research and Sources

Several studies highlight the effectiveness of borate-treated, blown-in pest control insulation. For example, research from the Journal of Economic Entomology indicates that borate-based materials significantly reduce insect activity. Additionally, a report from the National Pest Management Association emphasizes the long-term benefits of pest-resistant insulation in homes. The U.S. Department of Energy also states that properly installed insulation can lower energy bills by up to 20%, making TAP® insulation a cost-effective investment.
