i HAVE used natural, unwashed sheep's wool as roof insulation with excelent results so far (2 years). I did treat the wool with Borax salts for added protection. Since the wool was unwashed, it was enough to spread the dry salt on top of the wool--it sticks to the lanoline. If you use washed wool, you will have to disolve the salt in water and spray it on.
