White itch free fibreglass loft insulation

Does it have to be fibreglass? There's a very acceptable fibrous insulation made from old pop bottles. Costs a (small) bit more, but doesn't itch and does the job very nicely. Cares no more about damp and infestation than glass does.

Absolute pig to cut!

Somebody donated me a part roll. I keep meaning to test if it burns.

If it's PET it *will* burn, but it's reluctant, it tends to shrink away from flames.

I just pulled it apart. Never thought to cut it.

If I have a tall roll and need to fit it between joists, I cut it with a handsaw while it's still tightly rolled - works nicely.

I was thinking about using the loft insulation made from plastic bottles, but wasn't sure abouts its fire resistance. I read somewhere that there is a green colored plastic bottle insulation thats easier to cut?

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember harry saying something like:

Having been exposed to some right old fibreglass insulation which had deteriorated to nearly dust, I can tell you it's a breath stealer before you can get the mask on. I'd not be at all surprised if it turns out to be as big a threat as the properly dangerous asbestos s*it. Thank f*ck I don't do that anymore.
