Diatomaceous Earth DiatomaceousEarth Food Grade 1 lb | 100% Organic, All-Natural Powder | Safe for Humans & Pets | OMRI Listed for Organic Use

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.

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. Great safe product for homes with pets

I drink DiatomaceousEarth Food Grade, 1 Lb with water on most days with water. Two tablespoons or more. The kill off didn't negatively effect me. My sugar cravings reduced for sure within two weeks or less. I hope its clearing my body of harsh metals. A little bit on my toothbrush every week was a great way to keep my gums healthy. Brush gently.

Had to try it. Get rid of snells. It works. Use very little.

I understand that some people were worried about this causing lung problems or being harmful to pets. Apparently this is NOT an issue WITH THIS PARTICULAR PRODUCT. After I did some research I made sure to buy the FOOD GRADE DE. It seems to be completely safe, unless maybe you already have lung problems. My mom does have some small lung problems, and she does seem to get more congested if she spends time in the rooms that I used this in, but nothing serious. I have several cats, and it has not bothered them a bit. As I understand it, some people apply it directly to their pets fur to treat for fleas. I applied this to many pieces of furniture, with no mask and bare hands. I was practically covered in it, and had no problems except dry skin. I did not purchase an application tool, so I just got an empty salt shaker which worked fine. I even put it under my fitted sheet on my bed. I could see the powder through my thin sheet. I still had no problem sleeping on it. (no sneezing, congestion, etc.) I bought this for a minor bed bug problem. As I had already thrown out the pieces of furniture the infestation was coming from, I cannot actually verify how effective this product is against bed bugs. I coated everything I could in the stuff anyway. Hope it helps keep the little vampiric ninjas at bay. As to the mouthy alarmist who keeps posting about how dangerous this product is......Dude, please get your facts staight before you scare the crap out of people. Apparently the non-food grade can be dangerous. SO BUY THE FOOD GRADE! It is completely safe. I have had it all over the place for a month. No problem. The only precaution I would take is to wear a mask if you have any ling problems, and use it with more caution than I did, hehe. Or you could test yourself out on it by applying it to some thing simple and easy to clean and see if it bothers your lungs, but as I said, my cats and I have had no problems, and my mom is only slightly irritated by it. Good product, good price. I'm happy.

Expensive.
