Anyone have any hard-won knowledge or pointers for attic insulation?
I need to put some in.
Leaning toward 25' rolls of the pink stuff.
Tempted to go with the eco-friendly blower bags, but we don't have hardly any access to the attic. It'll be hard enough squeezing the rolls up thru the little entry hole.

My husband always talks about an "attic blanket" - don't know if that goes over insulation or if it goes in place of it. And if you want to be eco-friendly in a roll form, see if you can find insulation made from recycled denim!

well it really depends on the building; your average winter/summer temperatures average humidity ect. i mean you can go with foam or spray but in my small experience, rolled insulation is the easiest. make sure to be covered head to toe, mask and goggles gloves the whole deal and the obvious be careful to keep your footing up there.
