Hi Tech Pest Control San Angelo

Pest Defense System

The original Tubes in the Wall® system, is a network of perforated tubes that runs throughout designated walls of a home, creating a virtual barrier that strikes unwanted guests where they’re the most vulnerable: where they live, hide, and breed. Because the Pest Defense System delivers pest control inside the walls of the home, families, and pets aren’t in contact with the pest control materials. And it lasts longer because it’s not exposed to the elements.

Conventional Pest Control

We create a barrier that helps prevent pests from entering your home. Using a combination of applications-including use of residual products with hand-held and powered equipment-we address pest hot spots the mosteffective way possible.

Termites

Once a home is built on soil pretreated by Hi Tech, termites seek a path of less resistance leaving homeowners free to rest easy without worry about their valuable home investment Hi Tech’s soil treatment sets up a powerful barrier to protect the home for years to come.

The Pest Defense System is installed by Hi Tech Pest Defense of West Texas and is not for sale or lease to any individual or company other than Hi Tech. We are a franchisee of Home Team Pest Defense the third largest residential pest control company in the United States.

TAEXX FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT IS THE BENEFIT TO OWNING A TAEXX SYSTEM?
When Hi Tech Pest Defense services your home, the technician will inject distribution lines inside the walls with pest control materials limiting contact with your family and pets. It’s effective because the pest control materials target pests where they hide, live and breed – inside the walls. And, it’s convenient. The advanced external hub means skilled techs can connect and provide pest service to the Taexx in-wall network without needing access to the indoors.

HOW DO I OBTAIN THE TAEXX SYSTEM IN MY HOME?
Hi Tech Pest Defense installs the Taexx integrated pest control system during a home’s construction. Ask your builder if they offer Taexx as a standard feature. Not all do. For homes that are already constructed, Hi Tech Pest Defense can still offer you our conventional pest control service.

DOES THE TAEXX NETWORKED HOME SYSTEM CAUSE MOISTURE BUILD UP INSIDE THE WALLS?
No. Independent research conducted by the University of Florida concluded that, “There is more water weight from condensation after a hot shower” than results from servicing a Taexx system in a home.

DOES THE TAEXX INTEGRATED PEST CONTROL SYSTEM CONTROL TERMITES?
No. It is not a deterrent for termites. However, we offer other products and services that will guard against termites.

WHAT IF I HAVE BLOWN-IN INSULATION?
Exterior finishes, foundation design and insulation type effect which walls Taexx is installed. Taexx is designed to meet the specific needs of each builder. The Taexx system will be installed in designated exterior or interior walls or a combination of both.

WILL THE TAEXX SYSTEM CLOG AFTER SEVERAL TREATMENTS?
No. Independent research by the University of Georgia determined that there was no apparent clogging of the apertures (holes), and none of the apertures malfunctioned during the simulated twenty-year test. The Taexx in-wall network, treatment equipment, and application techniques have been designed to work together to ensure clog-free lines for the life of the system.

WHAT CHEMICALS ARE USED IN THE TAEXX INTEGRATED SYSTEM?
The pest control materials applied through the Taexx system are registered by the Environmental Protection Agency. Transport, is currently being used by Hi Tech Pest Defense technicians when servicing the Taexx system. (Product label and material data safety sheets are available upon request.)

WHAT HAPPENS IF A TAEXX DISTRIBUTION LINE IS CUT DURING CONSTRUCTION?
Typically, damaged lines are found and repaired prior to closing up the walls. In the rare instance of a cut line the Taexx system typically has 10-15 zones and will cover adequate pest control even if a zone is disabled.

DOES THE NETWORKED HOME SYSTEM, TAEXX, QUALIFY FOR “GREEN” PROGRAMS?
Yes. The Florida Green Building Coalition (3 points), as well as numerous other “Green” programs, provides “Green Points” for including integrated pest management practices, specifically, precision targeting of pesticides to areas not contacted by or accessible to the occupants.

HOW DOES THE TAEXX INTEGRATED SYSTEM EFFECT THE AIR QUALITY INSIDE THE HOME?

Independent research conducted by Dr. Richard Lipsey, a University of North Florida toxicologist, has determined that there is no detectable level of pest control materials in the living areas of the home following the servicing of a Taexx integrated pest control system.

Watering

After your home is treated. Wait as long as you can before watering your lawn. Waiting a week or two after treatment will greatly increase the effectiveness of service.

Lighting

All insects are attracted to light.Any amount of light from windows with no curtains, porch lights or solar light will intice insects to your property. If you strongly feel they are needed outdoors motion lights are encouraged.

Staying on schedule

Maintaining scheduled services is extremely beneficial to a pest free home. Even during the winter months when you think pest are not around they are. Scorpions bread during the fall and spring.When they are young scorpions are easier to kill therefore greatly reducing the numbers during the summer. Chemicals also remain stable for longer periods of time in colder weather and will still be active when insects emerge in the spring.

IPM

Integrated pest management is the control of insects by means other than insecticides. Keeping windows closed at night, caulking trim around eaves, putting steel wool in weep holes and not bringing in firewood until you are ready to burn it are all I.P.M. measures.
