Default Insulation in tree stands?

Has anyone ever heard of spraying insulation into tree stands to quite them down? If so, how? If any of you have done it, was it worth it?

Thanks for the input!

Hunt Safe!

I've done it on a couple ladder type climbing sticks. It seemed to help but it doesn't make them silent. You'll have a lot of trimming and stuff as it swells and makes it necessary so you can stick them into each other. I never tried it on a climber or anything like that.

I've heard of people putting carpet up on the tree that they are sitting in to quiet things down. That way their jacket doesn't make a brushing or velcro trype noise.
