What is the procedure in the event that your insulation is vermiculite?

• The EPA estimates that over 70% of all vermiculite that was sold in the U.S. between 1919 to 1990 was mined from Libby, Montana and was contaminated with asbestos. That being said, you should always treat vermiculite as an asbestos containing material unless professionally tested and proven otherwise.
• Any disturbance of vermiculite insulation could potentially cause an asbestos fiber release into your home. This asbestos fiber release could cause potential health hazards to you and your family. Avoid disturbing it and hire a professional asbestos contractor like Dirty Ducts Cleaning, Environmental, and Insulation to assess the situation.
• Typically in one day or less, Dirty Ducts Cleaning, Environmental, and Insulation can have your vermiculite insulation removed!
