[GSBN] using loose straw insulation in roof

That is why it is important that the bale is snuggly forced into it’s place. It can’t “explode” if it has no place to go (with wood or other bales on all sides). It won’t resist more fire than an unplastered bale, but will resist as much. The wood in the roof would burn first.
