Taexx is an in-wall pest control system that is installed during the construction of new homes. The system consists of a network of tubes that are embedded in the walls of the house. These tubes are then connected to a central hub, which can be used to inject pesticides into the walls.
Lawsuits
Several lawsuits have been filed against Taexx alleging that the system is ineffective, can cause property damage, and can expose people to harmful chemicals.
Allegations
The plaintiffs in the lawsuits allege that the Taexx system does not effectively control pests, that the pesticides used in the system can leak into the walls of the house and cause damage, and that the pesticides can be harmful to people if they are exposed to them.
Status of the Lawsuits
The lawsuits are still ongoing. Taexx has denied the allegations and has stated that the system is safe and effective.
Potential Impact of the Lawsuits
The lawsuits could have a significant impact on Taexx, including:
- Financial penalties
- Damage payments to plaintiffs
- Changes to the marketing and labeling of the Taexx system
- A decline in sales of the Taexx system
Recommendations for Consumers
Consumers should be aware of the potential risks of the Taexx system before having it installed in their homes. If you have concerns about the Taexx system, you should talk to your builder or a pest control expert.
