A Sawdust is not nearly as good a material for insulation as Kiin- dried shavings, buckwheat hulls, redwood bark, rock wool. or cork.

When insulating a house, the fibrous materials like rock wool or spun glass are preferable to powdery materials like ground cork sawdust, because these sift out and make alot of dirt, especially il wort rot. for side "you have 10 go through the walls for dressing, and use around 500 to 1000 wiring or plumbing
