  • Hold on there, I said NA, as in N.A.

    I'll assume you're somewhere over there, where the vermiculite comes from places other than the Montana mine that was closed down.
    Russia, South Africa, Brazil and China produce vermiculite these days - all have stellar safety records.

    If you're worried, the worst thing to do is remove it yourself or have someone else do it who is equally untrained in remediation. Most of the places where vermiculite ends up are generally undisturbed - attics, walls and so on. Best to leave it as long as its sealed in, unless you want to pay some serious cash to a pro.

  • Cool. I just question what they may have used as it was probably a good 50 years ago. Looking at it, I'm not sure it's vermiculite as it's so dense. I think I'll re-pack with new stuff.
