SARASOTA TAP PEST CONTROL INSULATION

What is TAP insulation made of?

In TAP (thermal, acoustical, pest control) insulation, recycled paper serves as the main ingredient, usually sourced by diverting it from the landfill. Recycled paper is then reduced in size and fed into a disc mill. The paper fibers now resemble cotton, a texture that can receive a proprietary infusion of borate. The result? Superior, loose fill, environmentally sensitive TAP pest control insulation that provides ongoing protection while reducing energy costs.

How long does TAP pest control insulation last?

Under the right conditions, this type of insulation could last up to an astonishing 100 years! If, though, you have TAP insulation blown into your attic and experience a roof leak or something similar, the lifespan will likely be lessened. By comparing this lifespan to traditional insulation—which, under the right conditions, would consist of decades—it becomes clear that TAP insulation is truly a long lasting solution.

Is material in TAP insulation toxic?

The opposite is actually true! This type of pest control insulation is environmentally friendly, which is one of its key benefits. Most of the material consists of recycled paper with a texture that’s been specially modified to have the right consistency to be air blown into wall voids and attics. Then, the recycled paper is infused with a particular type of borate that’s already being safely used by pest control professionals in multiple ways.

Now look at what the use of TAP pest control insulation accomplishes, which is to create an environment that protects you and your family from toxic situations. In contrast, if rodents could have settled in, then they could spread diseases through their urine, saliva, and droppings as people breathed in their airborne spores.

What makes TAP pest control insulation the right choice?

Benefits are plentiful, including that this is a highly effective form of insulation for your Sarasota home, one that can conveniently be blown on top of already existing insulation in your attic. When a home is being newly constructed, this material can go into wall voids and attics from the start to provide superior construction. As another benefit, TAP insulation can reduce energy costs by up to 30 percent annually as homes are cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.

Then there’s the pest control aspect that protects your family from raccoons, rodents, birds, and more that might otherwise settle into your attic and potentially spread diseases indirectly as people inhale airborne spores from urine, feces, and saliva. Or, if your family comes in contact with any of these wildlife, disease can be directly transmitted. With borate-infused TAP insulation, though, you’ll automatically benefit from ongoing pest control protection.
