Disinfecting & Reinsulating an Old & Dirty Attic in Montgomery, NJ

We were sent out to a home in Montgomery, NJ, to add some new blown-in cellulose insulation to the attic. The customer has owned the home for over 35 years and hasn't been up to his attic in over 15 years! Since almost all of the fiberglass insulation was falling apart, dirty, and no longer efficient, the first thing we did was take all of it out of the attic and dispose of it properly!

Nest, we disinfected the entire attic from top to bottom. Afterward, we added our makers, to ensure that the proper amount of R-value is added to the attic, and then added over 10 inches of TruSoft blown-in cellulose insulation. Trusoft fills the attic to its recommended insulation levels, has the highest Class-1 fire safety rating, is resistant to mold and pests and is eco-friendly. Not to mention that TruSoft blown-in cellulose insulation maximizes home comfort and optimizes energy usage for year-round peace and savings for the owner!

Starlings Harboring in the Chimney in Montgomery, NJ

We were sent out to a home in Montgomery, NJ to remove a number of starlings that were harboring inside the chimney. Starlings have a reputation of being the most annoying and common home-invading birds in the US. They are stocky black birds with short tails, triangular wings, and long, pointed bills. They nest in holes and cavities and often use holes in buildings — primarily dryer vents. The starlings have also had a negative impact on the US economy and ecosystem, which designates them as an invasive species. The uric acid in starling feces can damage paint, plastic, canvas canopies, corrode stone, metal, and masonry. 

A short while after setting up our devices, we safely removed all of the starlings out of the chimney. Now, in order to make sure that both the chimney's are protected from future intrusions, we installed a chimney cap over each one. A chimney cap is a heavy-duty material that's constructed out of 24 Gauge Top and Flange, and 18 Gauge Galvanized Mesh! It is designed to prevent access to the chimney from all nuisance wildlife and birds. Now both chimneys are properly excluded!

Sealing Up the Rodent Entry Points in Princeton, NJ

We're returning to this home in Princeton, NJ to check up on the mice infestation. As we checked our rodent bait stations, we did find some activity inside a few of them, so we replenished the bait. Since the mice were able to squeeze through a tiny opening around one of the utility pipes, we stuffed that opening with chew-proof metal mesh and sealed it off with a premium, waterproof adhesive. We waited a few moments and smoothed the adhesive out to make it even with the siding and to blend better.

We repeated this process to each and every single opening around the exterior of the home. When we had finished, we scheduled several additional follow up visits with the homeowner to change out the bait in the rodent bait stations until the mice are no longer infesting the home.

Excluding All the Entry Points from Rodents in Princeton, NJ

We're returning to this office building in Princeton, NJ, for a follow up visit for mice. Previously, we installed a number of rodent bait stations around the exterior and throughout the interior of the building. For this visit, we're going to check up on each of the bait stations and replenish them.

Since there were multiple openings and gaps around several utility pipes, we're going to exclude them! First, we're going to stuff each one with chew-proof stainless metal mesh. Rodents typically don't like chewing through metal because it's extremely uncomfortable for their teeth and gums. Afterward, we're going to seal them with a waterproof, premium adhesive.

Once we're finished, we're going to schedule several more follow up visits to replenish the bait stations and monitor the mice activity until they are no longer infesting the property.

New Homeowner Adds Blown-In Attic Insulation in Skillman, NJ

After purchasing his property in Skillman, NJ, this new homeowner wanted our Attic Systems team to come out and add blown-in cellulose insulation to this attic. Overall, since the home was over 30 years old, all the insulation in the attic was no longer efficient.

The first thing we did was carefully removed all of the insulation and disinfected the entire attic. We then placed several measuring markers throughout the attic to guarantee that the proper amount of R-value is added. Lastly, we added approximately 12 inches TruSoft blown-in cellulose insulation throughout the attic.

Trusoft fills the attic to its recommended insulation levels, has the highest Class-1 fire safety rating, is resistant to mold and pests, is eco-friendly, maximizes home comfort,  and optimizes energy usage for year-round peace and savings for the homeowner!
