As temperatures rise in summer, fall and winter might be the last things on your mind—but if you’re a proactive homeowner or pest control professional, now is the ideal time to think ahead. Preparing homes with TAP® (Thermal, Acoustical, Pest Control) Insulation in the summer lays a smart foundation for comfort, protection, and savings when the seasons change.
Why Summer Planning Makes Sense
Installing insulation might sound like a job best done in the colder months, but summer is actually the strategic season for preparation. Scheduling your TAP Insulation install before the rush ensures availability, avoids weather delays, and sets up your home or your customer’s home for a seamless transition into fall.
Plus, pest activity is high during summer, making it the perfect time to address infestations and prevent new ones before pests seek shelter indoors during the colder months.
TAP Insulation’s Dual Benefit: Pest Control + Energy Efficiency
1. Built-In Pest Protection:
TAP Insulation is treated with boric acid, a naturally occurring mineral that targets common household pests such as ants, cockroaches, termites, and silverfish. As pests attempt to nest in attic spaces or wall voids for winter, TAP acts as a long-lasting deterrent and solution.
2. Energy Savings All Season Long:
TAP Insulation has a high R-value, meaning it resists heat flow effectively. During the fall and winter, this translates to warmer indoor temperatures and reduced energy bills – a win for homeowners and the environment alike.
Beat the Fall Rush
By the time September rolls around, insulation schedules fill quickly, especially for pest control professionals. Homeowners who wait may face delays, cold drafts, and higher utility costs before they can get the service they need.
That’s why TAP professionals recommend summer installs – you’ll stay ahead of the seasonal demand and ensure that your home is sealed, safe, and savings-ready when the cooler temperatures hit.
For Pest Control Pros: Set the Stage for Off-Season Services
Summer is also the time to talk to your clients about fall and winter prep. Offering TAP Insulation as part of a comprehensive pest control and energy-efficiency package allows you to extend your service season and provide additional value, even during months when pest activity slows.
Don’t let cooler weather catch you off guard. Whether you’re a homeowner looking for year-round comfort or a pest control professional planning your service calendar, TAP Insulation for fall and winter is a powerful solution. Start now—because the best installs happen before the cold creeps in.
