As the seasons change, insects tend to become smarter and pickier about their hiding places. Their newest target…your attic. Despite the fluxuation of temperatures, attics make an ideal shelter from the elements. The best advice for avoiding becoming a safe haven for insects is to clear your attic of clutter such as boxes, Christmas décor, clothing, and other unused items. Consider donating, recycling, or tossing those items that become tourist traps for crawling visitors.

TAP Attic Insulation Pest Control

Attics are known to be the headquarters for invaders like insects, wildlife, and other pests. In many cases, insulation can be damaged by pests through moving or contamination. If this occurs, insulation will need to be replaced to rid a home of any health risk. “Properly insulating your attic can reduce your heating and cooling bills by up to 30%. Not only does upgrading your insulation add value to your home, it provides better protection against cold and heat,” says Jacob Cohn, an Associate Certified Entomologist at Arrow Termite and Pest Control. When most homes are constructed, builders are typically required to put a minimum R-value of 30 into an attic, however, the U.S. Department of Energy recommends an R-value of 49 in most areas of the country for optimal savings of energy and money.
