Benefits of Attic Insulation Replacement from Critter Control
The benefits of new attic insulation vary based on the type, but as a whole, the upgrade can help with everything from creating a healthier living environment to energy efficiency and pest control. Here’s an overview of how each of our go-to insulation options can improve your home:
TAP Attic Insulation
TAP insulation is the gold standard for many homeowners looking to upgrade their attics. It’s an innovative material that boasts advantages over other forms of insulation, including:
- Thermal: This insulation offers excellent thermal performance, keeping your house warm during winter and cool during summer. This helps raise your home’s energy efficiency, helping ensure your comfort at all times while reducing heating and cooling costs.
- Acoustical: Among the most underestimated benefits of this insulation is sound dampening. The insulation absorbs sound waves, so outside or cross-room noises are softer. This enables a quieter and more serene indoor environment.
- Pest control: This insulation is treated with a natural pest control product that makes it a powerful deterrent for insects and pests. Unlike other materials, it offers continuous pest protection without any harmful chemicals.
Attic Remediation after Nuisance Wildlife Infestation

Dens and Nests
Wildlife will create dens and nests with the available materials in the nooks and crannies of your attic space. Dens and nests are often made using your insulation or HVAC ductwork, but animals can also use cardboard boxes, clothe, paper, and anything available. Dens and nests can reduce the energy efficiency of your home and destroy stored items.
