I want to batten the walls and install some insulation, but I want to

Probably use exterior grade osb on the inside, but what insulation to
use ? rockwool or Glass fibre mat ?
What would mice etc not like to nest in is probably the query.
Also need to insulate an up and over garage door, what's best to stick
on here. Clearly I won't be skinning it over with wood due to excess
weight. How about around the edges where the gaps are ?
I have a recipe for all of this which I've posted a few times, Paul.
My garage has a pitched, trussed, felted roof.

Thanks Andy,
This is something I look at every year, just when the first cold snap
hits ;-)
I think the walls and door are priority #1 as it'll give me the best
return on time investment.
"15mm air gap behind. Filled frame with 50mm Celotex."
Hmm, where's the air gap ?
So, batten the floor too then when framing ? not just put the board
down to floor level ? The floor is concrete.
Cheers,
Paul.
