Our Attic Insulation Removal Process:

Depending on your structure and the type of insulation used, Defender Termite and Pest Management will assess your project needs and provide a detailed estimate for bringing your attic back to a clean and more energy efficient space. Defender Termite and Pest Management begins each insulation removal project with meticulous preparation. We cover floor and walls leading to your attic entry with protective plastic sheeting. Contents from your attic are moved to a secure location to ensure that they are not damaged before insulation is removed. The best way to get a cost estimate for your project is to call one of our friendly account representatives at (916) 836-8083.

Removal of Batting (Roll) Insulation

Batting insulation must be rolled up and removed by hand. Each piece is rolled up and placed into specialized insulation removal bags. These heavy-duty bags are removed from the attic, transported offsite, and disposed of properly. Defender technicians then vacuum out the entire area to remove any remaining loose insulation, rodent droppings and other debris between each joist.

Removal of Blown-In Insulation

Defender technicians vacuum out blown-In insulation such as fiberglass, cellulose and rockwool. An extended 6’’ hose is fed into the attic area where the old insulation is then vacuumed out, along with any rodent waste and debris. All waste is pumped into large insulation removal bags using specialized machinery which remains outside of the structure.

Cleaning, Decontamination, and Re-Insulation

Once your attic space is clean and free of rodent droppings and insulation, the space is ready for decontamination and installation of new energy efficient insulation. Call (916) 836-8083 for a free estimate. Defender Termite and Pest Management will evaluate the job and see how we can help you with your insulation removal needs!

Attic Cleanup

If you have rats and mice in your attic, you could be harboring a plethora of harmful diseases and health concerns.

Rodent urine and feces contain allergens that once inhaled, can be a major cause of sinus inflammation and asthma for you and your loved ones. Rodent infestations can also promote the growth of mold causing decay to wood in your attic and crawl space and damage to the load-bearing beams of your home.

Defender Termite and Pest Management technicians are experts in providing clean and healthy living environments. Our technicians are trained to conduct a thorough inspection to uncover areas in your attic and crawl space that rodents enter, frequently visit or have made their home. We then completely clean the space and then seal up their entry points to help prevent future problems. Our technicians can also help homeowners with tips on how to avoid conditions that attract rodents.

If you notice signs of rodents in your attic such as droppings, nesting activity, urine stains, odors or sounds, it’s time to call the Defender Termite and Pest Management team and decontaminate the space and provide effective rodent proofing systems that will keep your attic clean and safe.

The experts at Defender Termite and Pest Management can provide the necessary cleanup, sanitization, and rodent proofing for your attic space. Our friendly staff is happy to answer any questions you may have before, during and after your appointment. Call us at (916) 836-8083 for a free estimate.
