DiatomaceousEarth 5 LBS FOOD GRADE Diatomaceous Earth - 100% Organic All Natural Diamateous Powder - Diametaceous for humans is Safe Around Children

I love this stuff. Every spring and summer I buy diatomaceous earth once a month to sprinkle around the entire perimeter of my house as well as to dust my floorboards inside in order to get rid of and prevent ants & earwigs from taking over my house. I had a severe infestation of both last summer that left me traumatized. I would see earwigs crawling up my walls at night, find them in bed with me, find them hiding inside of clean folded clothes and blankets... and they will pinch if they feel threatened. It got to the point where I couldn't even sleep in my own house. I had the property professionally sprayed inside and out twice and was still seeing them a week later. I did some research and found this stuff and it was a literal godsend. It is messy. Very messy. But omg it is worth it. After application it took only 2 Days and they were gone for good. I love that it is safe for both kids and pets to be around and won't harm them if ingested. I don't have pets, but there's neighborhood pets roaming around and i would hate for them to ingest something poisonous outside my home... but no worry here.Just make sure when you're using the duster indoors that you ventilate the areas until the dust settles Bc although harmless when ingested, breathing it in isn't recommended. I open my windows and get the ceiling fans going during application and things usually settle within about 20-30 mins. So Cover your nose and mouth when applying with the duster indoors. Point the duster downward when using so that more product comes out otherwise it takes forever and your fingers get sore. Outdoors it's fine. I don't even use the duster outside. I just use a small measuring cup and sprinkle it generously around the foundation of my home and in my garden. Make sure you do it on a dry day when there isn't rain or heavy winds within 24 hours after application for best results. It will still keep working even after it rains, but will eventually need to be reapplied. I do it about once a month from April until Octoberish. A 4-5 pound bag is enough for me to place all around the foundation, garden and inside of my home once with about 1/4 bag leftover. This stuff literally rids your home and prevents any crawling insects from returning. It has become a necessity in my every spring and summer Bc it works that well!

I use this in my homemade carpet powder as a natural insect repellent and it definitely does the job. Just be aware , it’s a very light, dusty powder. When you sprinkle it, it floats into the air a bit, so try not to inhale it. But it mixes well with other ingredients and I like knowing it’s food grade and safe to use around the house.

Diatomaseus Earth is a type of microscopic stones that serves for various purposes. This product can be used for the cleaning of my cat' s intestines. Microscopic living beings cannot eat stones, thus this product can be used to control even bad odors. I use about two cups mixed to a litter box and there are no foul smells. However, clean the litter boxes of your cats. It also adds to the power to avoid bad smells. You can notice all these benefits and more when you have Diathomaseus products. It potentiates the sand of the litter box. But be aware not to dispose off this product to the toilets or sewage in general, it turns into stone when it contacs water. A bag can last for a few years.

This is the Highest quality food grade DE that we could find in the entire market! Love the recyclable packaging and how useful it is around the home. Will only buy from these guys from now on!!

Package arrived quickly and in good condition. I have not used it yet but I plan to use it in the garden and around my basement to eliminate silver fish from getting into my Christmas ornaments and other storage boxes.

I use this to kill aphids and earwigs in my garden. I sprinkle it around the base of a plant and turn over the soil a bit to get down by the roots but without disturbing the roots. It seems to work well, but not perfect. I've had infestations and with this it helps remedy that 80 to 90% which I find a success. I just opened the bag and take a small shovel and sprinkle it around. I don't necessarily wear gloves and I don't wear a mask when I use this. Although it is dusty. This is the second year I've been using this and it definitely helps. I will continue to buy as I need it for my garden.
