Default polystyrene loft insulation

Since a neighbour discovered that this insulation eats into electric wiring
I have cleared 2 lofts of the stuff, smallish loose bits rather like that
used in packing.
Anyway, having cleared said lofts with broom/garden vac on suck and
blow/dustpan and brush etc.. I'm looking for a decent way of vacuuming the
nasty stuff. Hire shops cant help. I wondered if anyone here might have an
idea? Convert the garden vac?

To give an idea of volume. one attic filled 34 wheeliebin bags so rigging a
suction hose that empties thro the loft hatch into a bin in the hall below
would be perfect.
Otherwise its back to 120 degree pain for the next loft (in 3 weeks time)

Thanks

Peter
