Have you heard the news? A billionaire recently had to get a £30m refund because his house was overrun with moths! Even the richest can face costly problems if things aren’t done properly. This story reminds us that investing in the right insulation is key to keeping your home safe and sound.
The Sheep Wool Debate
Some people swear by sheep wool insulation for its natural, eco-friendly benefits. Here’s a quick rundown of its pros and cons:
Pros:
– It’s a renewable, natural material that helps regulate moisture and temperature.
– The Austrian company Isolena, for example, produces natural, non-chemically treated wool insulation that’s great for those looking for a truly green option.
Cons:
Because it’s a natural fibre, there’s a risk that pests like moths might be attracted to it if it isn’t treated properly.
It can also be a bit more expensive, and its performance depends a lot on careful installation.
