If you are in the market to buy a newly constructed home or build a new home from the ground up, ask about Taexx, the bug barrier. Taexx is a built-in pest control system designed to keep pest control easy and hassle free for home buyers. This unique built-in pest control system is a network of tiny tubes built into designated walls as the new home is being constructed. Taexx cannot be retrofitted once the dry wall goes up, so ask your home builder about it now!

The tiny tubes in the pest control system are connected to ports on the outside of your home. On a regularly scheduled basis, a HomeTeam Pest Defense technician will provide our 6-Point Advantage Service that includes injecting pest control materials into the port box. It travels to the tubes and provides a light mist that kills bugs where they live and breed - inside the walls.

Even though your home is new, pests can still get inside. The neighborhood pest environment has been interrupted with the new construction and pests are looking for food and water. HomeTeam can help minimize those pests in the wall and can help you keep your home pest-free.

HomeTeam partners with some of the largest homebuilders to install Taexx including D.R. Horton, Lennar Homes, Pulte Group. Other builders include KB Home, Hovnanian Enterprises, The Ryland Group, Beazer Homes, Meritage Homes, David Weekley Homes, Ashton Woods, and Toll Brothers.

Protect your new home from termites with soil pretreatment. HomeTeam's two-step liquid pretreatment is effective and provides long-lasting termite protection.

Wood pretreatment is another alternative for protecting your new home. HomeTeam's borate wood pretreatment acts as both a termiticide and a repellent for years after application.

Traditional Pest Control

Once you move in, you can still protect your home from pests with traditional pest control for the interior and exterior. If you don't have Taexx, just call us to find out more.
