[Cob] wool for insulation

Hi there
I have a nearly unlimited source for wool if I want it. I was thinking of 
using this as insulation for our home remodel/cob addition. I don't want to 
have to do a lot to it-- I was thinking to wash it, soak it in the borax 
solution , and stuff it into the places I need it. Does anyone have a 
general guideline for the R-value of wool like this in its natural state?

Thanks
Kristen
