Hello,
Is there a good way to seal batt insulation to framing, to prevent air leaks at this juncture? Or should I give up on the idea and focus on using a house wrap or thin rigid foam as an air barrier?
Cheers, Wayne

According to Wayne Whitney :
What would be the point of sealing batt insulation to framing, when the whole batt leaks air like a sieve?
Use a house wrap. Allows you to seal the whole envelope, not just where the insulation is.
