Insul-brick contain asbestos?

Asbestos
My home is a house built in 1961 and has some weird type of siding on it. It is fake brick panels, thick, and seems fiberish on the back of it. It was put over wood panels. I recently had my home inspected and he said I should have it tested for asbestos. I’ve been doing some research online and have found what looks to be just like what I have in the following links, but I can’t find proof that it contains asbestos. What I have found it that it is extremely flammable.

Thanks for any kind of input you can give me.

well the words asbestos and flammable dont generally go together…there are still some old houses in our town that have this kind of brick siding and i dont recall any of them having to do anything special to have it torn off or covered…if it makes you feel better have it tested…
