Maintaining a comfortable temperature in your home throughout every season depends, in part, on quality insulation. Attic insulation can slow down heat transfer through the attic. The attic insulation Terminix offers is also toxic to certain pests and is intended to help prevent new infestations of affected pests where the insulation is applied. Here are a few more potential benefits of attic insulation:

Provides protection against excessive heat transfer, potentially reducing energy costs
Contains a flame retardant for added peace of mind and helps to reduce noise

What’s the best insulation for attics?
There are a few different types of insulation used in attics. Since attics have tight spaces and some inaccessible areas, insulation that can be blown into place is often the most convenient option. The R-value (the resistance to heat flow) is also taken into consideration when choosing the right insulation for your attic. Here are common attic insulation options:
Fiberglass: Made of very fine strands of recycled glass and can be blown into attics or cut to fit.
Cellulose: Made out of recycled paper and treated with a fire-retardant chemical. It can be blown into place and has a higher R-value than fiberglass, making it more practical for homes located in colder climates.
