Default Working in Cellulose Insulation...

Howdy all. Does anyone have a tip for working in an attic covered with
cellulose insulation? We have knob and tube wiring in the attic
covered with mounds of insulation at least 18 inches thick. I need a
way to get the cellulose insulation out of the way so I can trace the
wiring and inspect/replace it. I can't just shovel the stuff out of
the way because of the wiring. I'm tempted to take my leaf blower up
there this weekend and see how that works. Anyway, I'm open for
suggestions.

YOU SHOULD NEVER COVER KNOB AND TUBE WITH ANY INSULATION EVER!!

Its past time to rewire your home, and if you have a house fire its
very possible insurance wouldnt cover your loss
