PCI: TAPcover Recessed Light Cover

Pest Control Insulation’s (PCI’s) trademarked TAPcover Recessed Light Cover (TC900) was specially designed by the TAP team for TAP jobs. It is designed to allow the installer to insulate safely and effectively around recessed lights. Research has shown that without proper insulation, areas around recessed lights can allow a large amount of heat energy to enter or escape from a building. Features include:

  • Allows insulation to be applied around and on top of light fixtures
  • Easy installation
  • Compatible with all types of insulation
  • Manufactured in the U.S. from recycled paper products
  • Perforated areas allow for the cover to be vented or solid
  • Pricing is for a bundle of 10 light covers

Catseye Pest Control expands in Massachusetts

Catseye Pest Control, based in Latham, N.Y., acquired two Massachusetts companies: Security Pest Elimination of Lowell and Biologic Pest Control of Walpole.

Security Pest Elimination, founded in 1993, has served residential and commercial customers throughout Massachusetts and southern New Hampshire for termite, rodent, ant, bed bug and wildlife control. Biologic Pest Control, founded in 2006, focuses on commercial customers across the region.

As part of the acquisitions, customers of both Security Pest Elimination and Biologic Pest Control now join the Catseye family of brands and will continue to receive pest control services backed by Catseye’s team, resources and service standards.

“These are meaningful acquisitions and an exciting step in our growth story,” Joe Dingwall, CEO of Catseye Pest Control and USX Pest, said in a news release. “Security Pest and Biologic have each spent decades earning the trust of their customers, and we’re honored to welcome them into the Catseye family of brands. We look forward to many more steps like this in the months and years ahead.”

About Catseye Pest Control

In 1987, Catseye began as a two-person operation. John Gagne used his mom’s old station wagon and went door-to-door offering pest control services for homes and businesses while his wife, Monica, managed their tiny office in their home in East Greenbush, N.Y. Today, the Catseye family has more than 100 employees.

Recently, Gagne explained their journey, noting he and his wife had “nothing but each other and the refusal to quit. I built it crawling through attics and crawlspaces after spending a year in a wheelchair. Not because of luck because of grit, discipline, and showing up every single day. This wasn’t built in perfect conditions. It was built through pain, pressure, discomfort, and the obsession to create something bigger than ourselves. If you want to build something real, understand this: Success comes from sacrifice, resilience, work ethic, and showing up on the hard days.”

Bed bug product insights: Nisus

RECENT INNOVATIONS:One of the biggest challenges is not the bed bug itself, but the stigma attached to it. Many people still associate bed bugs with poor hygiene or unclean living conditions, even though infestations can occur anywhere from luxury hotels and office buildings to public transportation and single-family homes. Because of that negative perception, infestations often are hidden, ignored or reported far too late. 

That delay gives bed bugs exactly what they need to thrive. A small introduction can quickly turn into a widespread infestation affecting neighboring apartments, adjoining hotel rooms, schools, healthcare facilities and workplaces. In multiunit housing, especially, one untreated infestation easily can become a building-wide problem. Early reporting and immediate action remain some of the most important tools we have in long-term bed bug management.

Successful treatment strategies use an integrated approach that combines inspection, sanitation, physical removal and carefully selected products. Steri-fab remains valuable for quick contact kill and sanitation on mattresses, upholstered furniture and sensitive surfaces, while Fireback aerosol can help flush and control bed bugs hiding deep inside cracks, crevices, furniture joints and
wall voids. 

Another growing opportunity for PMPs is addressing the unpleasant odors often associated with heavy infestations. Products such as Foam Fresh and
Bac-Azap can be incorporated as add-on services to help eliminate lingering odors from furniture, carpets and infested rooms, improving both sanitation and customer satisfaction after treatment. 

PREDICTIONS: The next five years likely will bring a greater emphasis on rapid detection, preventive treatments, targeted crack-and-crevice applications and nontraditional monitoring tools. As travel continues to increase, bed bugs will continue spreading through luggage, furniture, public seating and shared living spaces. 

Ultimately, the future of bed bug management will depend less on finding a miracle product and more on faster response, reduced stigma and proactive treatment at the very first sign of activity.

Envu: Horizon Fall Pest Advantage

Envu’s Horizon Fall Pest Advantage promotion is built to help pest management professionals (PMPs) stock up on critical supplies before the busy fall season. From Aug. 3, 2026, through Sept. 30, 2026, PMPs can stack seasonal rebates on top of their year-round rewards when purchasing select products through the Envu Horizon platform.

“This promotion is a force multiplier for PMPs who need dependable solutions during this time of year,” says Gustavo Corrales, Envu’s western regional sales director. “It is an ideal time to round out an integrated cockroach control strategy with premium products like Maxforce Impact and Maxforce FC Magnum roach bait gels, as well as Transport Mikron insecticide and other flagship insecticides in the Envu portfolio.”

For thorough insect control from ants to cockroaches to bed bugs, products like Suspend PolyZone and Temprid FX insecticides, along with Scion insecticide with UVX Technology for mosquitoes, are all available through the Horizon Fall Pest Advantage promotion. Scion provides decisive mosquito control that endures the most extreme conditions. Scion purchases made during the promotional period carry payment terms of June 4, 2027, and earn savings through Envu Horizon rebates.

Envu Horizon lets customers earn points throughout the year with rewards that scale with their purchasing levels.

Bed bug product insights: Neogen

RECENT INNOVATIONS: Effective bed bug management begins with a thorough inspection, and having the right tools can improve both efficiency and treatment precision. The SureKill Liquid Pro Applicator is designed to support PMPs throughout the inspection and treatment process. Its compact, belt-mounted design provides hands-free mobility, allowing technicians to move furniture, inspect potential harborages and navigate treatment areas without setting equipment aside. Interchangeable tips can be quickly switched in the field, enabling applications tailored to a variety of treatment scenarios. 

The SureKill Liquid Pro Applicator is ideal for treating cracks, crevices, seams and voids where bed bugs commonly harbor. Its precision delivery helps PMPs target difficult-to-reach areas while maintaining application accuracy in sensitive environments.

Once activity has been identified, SureKill Flusher can be used to help reveal hidden bed bug harborages. Its dry-fog formulation penetrates deep into voids and concealed spaces where bed bugs often remain undetected during visual inspections. The formulation can be applied in any orientation, making it easier to use in hard-to-access locations. Approved for use in a wide range of settings, including hotels, schools, nursing homes and transportation equipment, it provides additional flexibility for service professionals.

Together, SureKill Flusher and the SureKill Liquid Pro Applicator provide a complementary approach to bed bug management, combining enhanced inspection capabilities with targeted treatment applications to address infestations in a variety of environments.

PREDICTIONS: Bed bug activity is expected to remain consistent over the coming years. While advances in technician training, inspection methods and treatment protocols continue to improve management outcomes, bed bugs remain highly adaptable pests that can be introduced into virtually any environment. As travel and population movement continue, demand for professional bed bug services is likely to remain strong, particularly in the hospitality, multifamily housing, healthcare and transportation sectors.
