I just did some research and it appears that times have changed. "They" now recommend an vastly different means of insulation a crawl. Search it. I was surprised.

Is this insulation on the crawl ceiling or on the walls? There is no question that any ceiling insulation should stay. I am not certain about crawl walls.

Also, does this insulation have a moisture barrier? If yes, the barrier must be removed or at least slashed to allow moisture to move.

Just had my termite bond inspection today. Found no signs of damage but the guy recommended removing all the insulation from my crawl space...seems I paid a lot of money
