got my first gas bill for the house I just bought- holy mole'!!!
I am now frantically trying to winterize, and figure out what
kind of insulation I have where, and what I can upgrade easily
in the middle of winter on a limited budget.  The coldest part
of the house is the area directly over the crawl space. There is
no insulation under the flooring, between the floor joists. I am
considring putting in some type of insulation there, but am
concerned that it my harbor pests and/or mositure. Some of the
posts I have read here indicate thart this can be a problem. The
house has some evidence for termite damage in years past, and
don't want to create a new improved enviroment for them and
other critters. Would some type of hard "plank" insluation be
best, as opposed to batting? what insulation is best for a crawl
space to avoid moisture and critter issues?  Tracy in CO
