Think encapsulating your crawl space can keep all pests out? Think again! Michael Church from Crawl Space Ninja joins us to bust the myth that encapsulation creates a critter-free zone. While encapsulation works wonders in drying out the environment and removing nesting materials like fiberglass insulation, it's not an impenetrable fortress. Learn the real benefits of encapsulation—from improved indoor air quality to significantly deterring pests—and understand why a fully bug-free crawl space is more of a fantasy than reality.
Join us as Michael explains how to seal major entry points around HVAC systems and other vulnerable areas to reduce infestations. He shares eye-opening insights on the limitations of encapsulation, emphasizing that pests still find their way through tiny holes and from above. If you're looking to make your home healthier and less appealing to pests, this episode is a must-listen. Michael's firsthand experiences and expert advice will guide you in making informed decisions about your crawl space. Tune in and discover why encapsulation is a smart move for your home, even if it doesn’t guarantee an entirely pest-free environment.
