Insulation helps keep your home quiet and comfortable year-round, but upgrading your attic insulation can also help keep pests out.
Dixon Pest Services installs eco-conscious attic insulation that includes a pest-repelling additive, effective against common pests like ants and cockroaches. Whether you’re building a new home or enhancing existing insulation, this option improves energy efficiency and comfort. We help homeowners in Thomasville stay protected from both pests and extreme temperatures with our licensed insulation services.
