Keep reading to learn about more pests that you can avoid with spray foam insulation:

#4. Cockroaches

Thanks to increased sanitation, cockroaches aren’t the problem that they used to be, but even though they are now easier to prevent, it is never pleasant to find cockroaches in your home. While they won’t harm the structure of your home, they can spread disease, so it’s important to take steps to prevent them. Seal all of the cracks and holes in your home, including the crawlspace and basement, to keep cockroaches out.

#5. Bees

Did you know that some bees will actually burrow into your home? These bees are called carpenter bees, and they basically look like big bumblebees. Carpenter bees nest in wood that is unfinished or bare, and if there are cracks or holes in your home where bees could get in, you could quickly have a problem on your hands.
