Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade, 5lb

Safe for use around the Home - Indoors and with Pets! All Natural & Organic Pest Control

Use Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth as a natural insecticide for the non-chemical control of aphids, whiteflies, beetles, loppers, mites, leafhoppers, and other insects. Sprinkle it inside your greenhouse, or outdoors on fruits, vegetable plants, flowers, grains, and grass up to and including the day of harvest.

Diatomaceous Earth controls insects by using physical, not chemical, action. It punctures an insect`s exoskeleton and absorbs its body fluids thus posing no harm to warm-blooded life. It is the fossilized remains of microscopic shells created by one celled plants called DIATOMS. Not all deposits of diatomaceous earth or the diatoms present in those deposits are the same.
