These organisms, how are they insulating against their own electric charge?

But as for energy, this house has a very advanced insulating system.

And by using mycelium as a glue, you can mold things just like you do in the plastic industry, and you can create materials with many different properties, materials that are insulating, fire resistant, moisture resistant, vapor resistant materials that can absorb impacts, that can absorb acoustical impacts.
