Traditional fiberglass insulation has inherent gaps and degrades over time. This allows hot or cold air into your home and results in wasted energy. To combat this, some pest control companies are utilizing a service that helps to fill in these gaps by installing measurably more efficient cellulose insulation on top of your existing insulation or directly between the attic joists and wall studs. Terminix is one of the companies offering this service in the Dothan/Wiregrass area and here is some info regarding our T•A•P™ (Thermal, Acoustic, Pest Control) Insulation.

Some energy efficient benefits of this system:

  • Saves up to 32% on energy bills
  • May qualify for up to $1500 in federal tax credits
  • Could earn even more in eligible state tax credits or possible utility company rebates
  • HVAC equipment requires less maintenance as it runs less often

More protection against pests:

The insulation contains borate, as pest control treatment commonly found in many regular household products. It will help keep out 10 types of pests including:

  • cockroaches
  • silverfish
  • ants
  • earwigs
  • crickets
  • sow bugs
  • darkling beetles
  • millipedes
  • centipedes
  • booklice

More benefits for your home and planet:

In addition to reducing the energy needed to heat and cool your home, this pest control insulation is made from 87% recycled material and has been awarded an ENERGY STAR label.  Plus, it helps resist mold and mildew, retard flame, and reduce noise.
