Helpful hints for building coops

[jvls1942]

mice will nest in insulation if it is not properly covered. And if you have proper/adequate ventilation, insulation does not increase humidity......

thanks, this is exactly what i was going to write.
i paneled my walls with osb , over 44 years, no mice no rats.
i picked up a 3ft steel door and have a wooden jamb
nothing has ever tried to chew through the jamb.
however. i built my own jamb out of 2x6 treated. i guess they didn't like the taste. lol

Some of us were just warning about insulation potentially causing a rodent problem.

Insulation is more about helpiong with the heat during those extremley hot summer days. It also helps with the cold during those frigid days. Why is your house insulated?
