This pure, additive-free product offers a chemical-free, mechanical method to control pests while enhancing soil vitality. Safe for humans and pets, it’s trusted by gardeners and pet owners alike for versatile, eco-friendly pest management and soil conditioning. ## Description Diatomaceous earth (DE) is made of tiny, fossilized diatoms (aquatic organisms) that accumulated over millennia in fresh water lakes. When mined and left untreated, this amazing product can be used in hundreds of different ways. However, not all diatomaceous earth is created equal. While most other manufacturer's hand scoop DE into zip lock bags, Diatomaceous Earth brand DE is professionally packaged using stainless steel equipment. Because of this process, you can be confident there are no contaminants in your food grade diatomaceous earth. Review: GARDEN /INDOOR PESTS, Extremely effective NO chemical, works mechanically. - Wow. I am so impressed with this incredible discovery I cannot believe I just only recently stumbled upon. I ordered this for use in my garden. I personally have not used it internally, but I would do so if I needed to. The aphids, the ants farming the aphids, the grub cutworms, etc etc were absolutely preventing any seedlings to grow!!! I was very, very frustrated because sowing a batch of seeds and watching them prosper is something I thoroughly love! The insects' doing would also allow the weakened seedlings to succumb to damping off ( I am adamant about NOT over watering) Okay anyway, I also am a bit ashamed to admit I was so desperate that I resorted to using se7in dust- which temporarily helped tiny bit. I also tried using my dad's spray style insecticide. Before resorting to these, I had gone and purchased neem oil, it helped on a tiny scale, the neem spray would be helpful on a way smaller problem. **Diatomaceous earth is a white ish powder composed of fossilized 'diatoms' AKA phytoplankton. The particles are sharp like shards of glass, on a microscopic level. When crawling insects with an exoskeleton walk through it, it compromises their exoskeleton and dehydrates their insides. The most important, noteworthy , UNIQUE characteristic that separates Diatomaceous Earth from all of pesticides, is the fact that it's action is MECHANICAL!! NOT chemical!!!! that, in my opinion, is why I consider this to be the most effective AND safest product for my purpose, as well as other purposes. There is no build up of toxins, nothing builds immunity, it's not harmful to pets or humans if walked on. I can dust my garden during the daytime and not worry about the foliage scorching like the chemical type. I don't coat the foliage very heavy though, just incase it could possibly interrupt the plant sunlight action. A little goes a LONG way. Immediately after the first sprinkle, next day I saw improvement. This literally saved an almost dead & deformed pumpkin vine, although it is severely stunted still, it went from the vine being all dried up and chewed up and yellow grey leaves, to GREEN green green! I doubt it will actually end up producing a pumpkin, but I still like the possibility. This has also eliminated the intense fungi damping off , blight diseases, simply because the opportunity for the pathogenic fungi is not occuring without damaged and weakened plants. I could have bought the non food grade label kind, however, I decided why not get the best quality, esp since price is not that high in my opinion. I also would love to mention, I am NOT a know it all, I could be a bit wrong on a few detailed descriptions mentioned, however, I am 100 percent confident to shout from the rooftops THIS IS THE ANSWER! referring to garden and home pests even bedbugs, fleas, fungus gnat larvae. I honestly can't comment on the internal uses, but I am absolutely certain this is quality and could be the answer to anyone needing internal cleansing of parasites. I will ALWAYS have a bag of this product in my stash, it is a staple now and I want to pass along my experience hopefully it will help! I'm not even affiliated with any company btw, and i paid regular price, I AM THIS HAPPY ABOUT IT! I get very enthusiastic about the things I'm beyond impressed with. Review: Saved me from ants - One day i went up to my room after work to get into my pjs and almost had a heart attack because my bed and carpet were teeming with ants. I immediately grabbed all my clothes off my bed and bed sheets and threw them all in a hot hot wash. Then i got my diatomaceous earth and sprinkled it aaaallllll over my carpet. I had to cover my face (should always do this!) and scrub it into the carpet. I left it overnight and spent the night in the living room and then vacuumed it up 3x over. There were no ants left. Still have a lot left and i use it for corners and cracks. It works slowly but works well.

Can anyone tell me how this product arrived? Was it labeled properly? Thanks** A: This is a unique page on Amazon as the product being sold is Diatomaceous Earth. The difference comes in how it is packaged and the quality of the product itself and from whom you purchase from as a seller. Several of the sellers on this page that sell in general bulk items or non branded items (review other items they sell on their seller pages) will sell diatomaceous earth is an unmarked store bought zip lock bag. It will arrive with a sticker stating that it is diatomaceous earth. My suggestion is do your homework and review the seller in which you choose to do business with as all the packaging of the items will be different as well as the quality of the product and the packaging process in which got the ingredient into the bag (hand scooped or professionally packaged). Make the "Wise" choice and thank you for the question. **Q: How do I use this around my rabbit?** A: I never owned a rabbit. But I use outside and hasnt effectec them at all. Check website or google **Q: Hi, is this effective for killing centipedes?** A: I'm not sure but it does a great job killing fleas so possibly! **Q: Do you put this stuff on your pets dry or do you mix it with water and do you put on your carpets and such mixed with water or dry???** A: I'd sprinkle a bit on my carpet dry. I have no dog or cat however I have sprinkled it in the bottom of my bird cage, put a bit in their water dish and even in their food. All at different times. Since the food grade is non-toxic I'd imagine you could put a thin coating around your dog or cats neck, something like a collar. Let me know how that works for you. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ GARDEN /INDOOR PESTS, Extremely effective NO chemical, works mechanically. *by N***� on May 5, 2016* Wow.
