Nisus Pro-Shield Nsulation Becomes Available in California

ROCKFORD, Tenn. – Nisus Corporation announced that Pro-Shield Nsulation is now available in California. Pro-Shield is an EPA-registered insecticide that doesn’t just insulate structures, but also protects them against termites, cockroaches, ants, crickets and other listed pests, the company said. 

Pro-Shield Nsulation offers another level of protection against structure-destroying pests. A blown-in insultation installed by licensed pest control operators that combats pests commonly found in attics, wall voids and crawlspaces, it also offers superior energy efficiency and soundproofing, Nisus said. With 14.72% orthoboric acid blended into the cellulose fill, Pro-Shield is an ideal complement to industry staples such as Bora-Care and Tim-bor, the borate-based termiticidal, fungicidal and insecticidal products that are long-trusted entries in the company’s portfolio, the company reported.

Nisus also said it considers the addition of the product to be a natural expansion to their lineup. Made with cellulose that is 100% recycled and manufactured with up to 50% renewable energy, Pro-Shield meets Nisus’ sustainability standards while fulfilling the needs of both pest control operators and the end-user, Nisus said,

“Pro-Shield is not your average insulation,” said Harry Bryan, vice president of business development for Nisus Corporation. “It’s not a treated article — it’s a pesticide in and of itself. Pro-Shield combines the proven power of borates with the insulation properties of cellulose, offering a multi-layered defense system that does more than just keep the home warm — it helps protect one of your biggest investments from hidden threats.”

Jim Sparks, director of product sales for Nisus, said, “Our nationwide sales and training team provides exceptional education on the ins and outs of defending property from pests and other threats. PMPs can present an entire roster of home protection strategies to builders and homeowners. Our team will demonstrate new revenue streams from the crawlspace to the attic.”

“PMPs are critical to the defense of public and private property from wood-destroying organisms. We are excited to offer them an exciting new way to do that, especially with a product that helps them to do so sustainably and effectively while providing their customers with a new service that brings peace of mind,” said Lee Barrett, president and CEO of Nisus. “Our team is always available to answer any questions about Pro-Shield Nsulation — whether it’s about installation best practices or label specifics. We’re here to support our fellow industry professionals every step of the way.”
