newell house.....

RE: newell house.....
Forrest,

What I did in my other building was put up normal rolled insulation in the metal rafters and then screwed up chicken netting over all of that. It didn't matter what I did, the insulation stayed put. It was cheap and went up fairly quickly. I did the same in the well house at the farm (wooden structure) and it works ok there, but I couldn't get to the very bottoms of the rafters (would have required a serious time investment). It is still doing pretty well there, only the rodents have tended to push out the unsupported lower areas. The rest is fine. I used simple sheet metal self tapping screws with washers to install in the metal building. It was a 30x30 and I probably did the insulation and the wire all in a day.
