HARRISDiatomaceous Earth Food Grade, 2lb with Powder Duster Included in The Bag

This 2lb bag of food-grade diatomaceous earth is exactly what I needed for natural pest control around the home. The powder duster included makes application easy and precise, which is a big help. I’ve used it in the garden and on problem areas indoors, and it works well without any harsh chemicals.It’s great knowing it’s safe to use around pets and kids while still being effective against insects. Overall, a high-quality product that delivers on its promises. Definitely will repurchase!

I bought this to put on my Australian shepherds fur coat. He gets fleas so I bought this to prevent the fleas instead of doing the expensive harsh chemicals that are dangerous for dogs. I really like the puffer. I put a bunch into it and then I put the nozzle into his hair and puff all over and then I just spread it with my hands. I do it outside because it is a huge mess. You want to do it outside when it’s not windy. Do not breathe in the powder. the fleas will eventually crawl through all of it and then they dry up and die. The powder puffer super easy not sure why other people are having problems with it. But I really love is you can get it on your skin and on your hands and it’s not a chemical that will hurt you. Give it a shot.

I bought the food grade DE for one specific purpose and it was to kill fleas off my dog and around the house. If you're in desperate need to kill fleas from your dogs (I don't know about cats) then you need this especially if you're going through a current infestation like I was. Diatomaceous Earth is a great natural flea and pest killer. On a microscopic level, the powder looks like tiny shards of glass. It is a drying agent and will pull the fats, oils and lipids from insects that crawl over the powder. The powder microscopically punctures the body of the insect.For my dog, instead of sprinkling it on him since it gets very powdery in the air. I use a small blush brush, eyeshadow/concealer brush, or any small paint brush will do. Be sure to use gloves because the powder can also dry out your hands. I leave the powder on my dog overnight and gave him a nice bath the following day. He didn't lick his body. You want to leave the DE on the dog for at least 24 hrs. He now has to deal with the leftover bites but there are no more fleas on him.To treat the house, I sprinkled the powder where the base boards are and any room that I haven't used in awhile but are now using. All corners, nooks, and crannies. Left the powder there for a day or 2 or 3. Afterwards, I vacuumed the powder. I have actually seen dead fleas and bugs overnight in the powder. It's pretty amazing. I'm keeping this on hand for general use and is a far better alternative than pesticides. It's quick and simple. I'm happy to report that there aren't anymore fleas in the house.As a plus, this is also safe to sprinkle in your yard (that's not wet). My dog didn't care for the powder. He did sneeze a bit like humans would if powder gets in his nose. Otherwise he was ok. Remember to always get the food grade version of treating your house and your pets.

I’ve been dealing with a roach problem in my kitchen and garage, and after trying sprays and bait traps with mixed results, I decided to give Harris Diatomaceous Earth a shot. I’ll be honest—it’s messy. The fine powder gets everywhere if you’re not careful, and applying it takes some patience. But once it’s down, it works.Within a few days, I started seeing dead roaches around the areas where I applied the powder, which was honestly a huge relief. It’s nice knowing this is a natural, chemical-free option, especially since I have a small dog. The key is to apply a thin layer in areas where roaches travel.A couple of things to keep in mind: It can be dusty, so wearing a mask while applying it is a good idea, and it works best in dry areas since moisture can make it clump or smear as you see in the second photo. Cleanup can be a hassle, but for something that actually gets rid of roaches, I’ll take it. If you’re looking for a solid solution and don’t mind a little mess, this is worth trying.

SECOND EDIT: This product actually did do some harm. It drove the bed bugs away enough that no exterminator can find visual evidence, and therefore cannot do anything. But the little devils are still there, eating me up every night. I'm going to hire a dog sniffing service to detect them and get some extermination going on. BUT I do understand it works pretty well for less tenacious insects like fleas and ants.EDIT: this stuff is all the things I described as far as ease of use and its nontoxic nature. But my report of success was too hasty. The bites have started up again. So, take this as you choose. I don't think it hurt anything, and might work after another week or two.This really works! Within a week of dusting, the bugs were gone. This stuff is easy to use, non-toxic, has no smell, leaves no stains. It is easy to use. The idea is to distribute a very fine dusting of this powder, and the applicator included does that very well. It took two or three squeezes to get the hang of using the applicator. Although this is so non-toxic you can eat it by the spoonful, you don't want to inhale the dust, or get it in your eyes. So I wore a dust mask and safety goggles. It is very messy to fill the applicator, so do it over the sink. Open it over the sink, too. The applicator is not wrapped separately, it is shoved into the top of the bag of earth, so you spill a bit of earth trying to dig it out. The messiness is easy to clean up, though, and well worth the effort.

This saved my plants. I had ants in my plant and I sprinkled this on in the dirt all around my plants the size of the bag is great I have powder left over. There is no bad smell. My plant looks so healthy. I am so happy with this product
