When the Problem Has Gone on Long Enough
Older construction in Brucetown comes with older vulnerabilities — gaps in the framing, crawlspaces that have seen decades of moisture, outbuildings that have been left to their own devices. TAP® insulation addresses what standard insulation never touches: the spaces where pests get in, nest, and spread before anyone notices. This isn't a cosmetic fix. It's a treatment that works inside the structure itself.
Here's how Petti Pest Control handles the process from start to finish:
- A trained Petti technician inspects the attic, crawlspace, and any other vulnerable areas to assess what's there and what needs to come out
- Existing insulation is removed carefully — no shortcuts, no mess left behind
- TAP® is installed with gapless coverage, floor to ceiling, including the spots where older homes tend to leave openings
- You get flexible scheduling so the work gets done on your time, not ours
Why TAP® Holds Up Where Standard Insulation Falls Short in Older Homes
Standard insulation keeps the temperature in. TAP® does that and more — it's pest-resistant, fire-resistant, and built to fill the irregular gaps that come with older construction. Settled walls, uneven framing, and decades-old cavities are exactly where conventional insulation loses ground. TAP® is treated with a borate-based pest control agent that works continuously, without repeat applications, making it a long-term solution for homes that have seen a lot of years. If carpenter ants, termites, or rodents have been finding their way in through the walls and ceiling, this is where that stops.

A Warranty That Actually Backs Our Work
When you invest in TAP® insulation, Petti Pest Control stands behind it — no fine print, no runaround. If pests return to treated areas after installation, we come back and make it right at no extra cost to you.
A lot of companies will walk out the door and leave you on your own after the job's done. That's not how Petti operates. Our satisfaction guarantee means the relationship doesn't end at installation — and the technicians who showed up for you the first time are the same well-trained, well-supported people who'll be there if you ever need us again.
What TAP® Insulation Actually Does for Your Home
Most insulation does one thing. TAP® does several, and that difference shows up in real ways — lower energy bills, a quieter interior, and a home that holds temperature without working as hard to do it. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, homeowners can save up to 15% on heating and cooling costs by air sealing and adding insulation in key areas. For a property with older construction and gaps that have opened up over the years, that kind of efficiency gain is worth paying attention to.
Here's what makes TAP® a smart upgrade for West Virginia homeowners:
- Higher R-value means better thermal resistance and more stable indoor temperatures year-round
- Gapless installation eliminates the air pockets that older blown-in or batt insulation leaves behind
- Fire-resistant material adds a layer of protection in attics and crawlspaces
- Reduced outside noise — walls and ceilings actually absorb more sound
- More efficient energy use means a smaller environmental footprint without sacrificing comfort
TAP® is also EPA-registered as a pest control product. The borate-based material is worked into the insulation itself, so it works continuously against common insects like ants, cockroaches, and termites without any additional treatments or chemicals in your living space. For a home with wood framing, a crawlspace, or outbuildings nearby, that's a practical layer of protection built right into the structure. Petti installs TAP® with the same trained technicians who handle your pest control — so the inspection, removal of old material, and installation are all done by people who already know what to look for.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can TAP® insulation lower my energy bills?
Yes. Its gapless installation eliminates the air pockets and inconsistencies that cause energy loss in standard insulation, meaning your heating and cooling systems work more efficiently.
How does TAP® insulation protect against pests?
TAP® insulation is treated with a pest-resistant barrier that deters insects and other pests from nesting or moving through your insulation. Unlike standard insulation that simply provides a warm, undisturbed environment for pests to settle in, TAP® actively works against them.
Is TAP® insulation fire resistant?
Yes. TAP® insulation includes fire-resistant properties, adding an additional layer of protection to the areas of your home where it's installed. This is one of several features that set it apart from standard insulation products that only address temperature regulation.
What does your insulation service include?
Our insulation service starts with a full inspection from a trained expert to assess your current insulation and identify any areas of concern. From there, we handle prompt removal of your existing insulation and careful, thorough installation of the new TAP® product. We work around your schedule with flexible appointment times so the process is as convenient as possible.
