New attic insulation

I Have an older home that needs new attic insulation. I had old blown in cellulose, now almost gone from degradation or old age. I saw an ad for blown in fiberglass, so my question is do you think this is ok.


Thanks in advance for your response.
Robert

Tom: Yes, it’s fiberglass. It’s glass fibers. It does not rot.
Charlie: Hence the name.
Tom: Yeah, that’s true. Wow, I never thought of that. Cellulose being garbage, which hence the name, it’s just going to dust away. We’ve talked about it for 29 years now on the air. Don’t use cellulose. This is why.
