Better Insulation. Built-In Pest Protection. Perfect for Memphis Homes.
If you live in Memphis, you already know how quickly your home can heat up in the summer and cool off in the winter—especially if your insulation isn’t pulling its weight. But what if your insulation could also help protect your home from pests?
At Lookout Pest Control, we install TAP® (Thermal, Acoustical, Pest Control) Insulation across the Memphis area, helping homeowners improve energy efficiency and reduce pest activity—all in one service.
Whether you own a historic Midtown craftsman or a spacious Germantown estate, TAP® Insulation is an ideal upgrade to your attic or crawl space.
What Is TAP® Insulation?
TAP® (Thermal, Acoustical, Pest Control) Insulation is a borate-infused cellulose insulation product designed to outperform traditional insulation in both function and versatility. It’s registered with the EPA as a pesticide, and its R-Value and STC rating meet or exceed standard insulation benchmarks.
Why Memphis Homes Need TAP® Insulation
Memphis weather is unpredictable. From sweltering, muggy summers to sudden cold snaps in the winter, your home’s insulation is critical to comfort and efficiency. Unfortunately, many homes in Memphis—especially older properties in Central Gardens, East Memphis, and Bartlett—still have outdated or underperforming insulation.
Here’s why TAP® is perfect for homes in the Mid-South:
-
Energy Savings: TAP® keeps your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, reducing strain on your HVAC system and lowering your energy bills.
-
Built-In Pest Protection: It’s the only insulation registered with the EPA for pest control. It helps deter ants, cockroaches, termites, and other common Memphis pests.
-
Sound Dampening: Memphis is a city of music and motion—TAP® helps reduce outside noise so your home stays quieter.
-
Eco-Friendly: Made from recycled paper and treated with a natural borate solution, TAP® is safe, effective, and sustainable.
How TAP® Insulation Helps Prevent Pests in Memphis
Memphis homes are particularly vulnerable to pests due to the city’s humidity, heavy rainfall, and clay-rich soil. Many pests—especially roaches, ants, and silverfish—are drawn to warm, moist areas like attics and crawl spaces.
TAP® insulation helps prevent infestations by:
-
Delivering a natural borate pesticide treatment that kills many common pests on contact
-
Creating a less hospitable environment for pests to nest or travel through
-
Blocking entry points in vulnerable spaces
This makes it an excellent companion to our traditional pest control services.
