Question: What are Pesticide Tubes-in-the-Wall?

Answer: Tubes-in-the-wall system: The patented Taexx system (Tubes-In-The-Wall) targets household pests right where they live. The system is a network of small, perforated distribution lines that is installed in designated walls during home construction and linked to service ports on the exterior. Through these service ports, HomeTeam technicians inject pest control materials into the lines, distributing them evenly within the wall voids. For complete protection, the technician will also treat the exterior perimeter of your home, including windows, doors, eaves and other entry points for household pests.  

The Taexx system … Maximizes the effectiveness of pest control materials. Minimizes exposure to you and your family. Avoids stains and messy clean-ups. Eliminates the need to move furniture and empty cabinets. MOST IMPORTANT: the pest technician services the system from outside your home meaning you do not have to be home at the time of service!!!
