What Is Vermiculite?
A pebble-like, silver-gold loose-fill insulation material. The EPA estimates 70 percent of vermiculite sold in the US before 1990 came from the Libby Montana mine site heavily contaminated with asbestos.
Identifying Vermiculite
Lightweight pebble-like material in your attic, sometimes mixed with wood shavings or other insulation. Do not confuse with cork or perlite.
What to Do If You Have Vermiculite
Treat it as if it contains asbestos. Do not disturb, move, or handle it. Do not store items in the attic. Do not allow children in the attic. Have it tested.
Safe Management Options
After testing, options include leaving it in place undisturbed, encapsulation, or licensed removal. We help you choose the right approach.
