Diatomaceous Earth, or DE for short, can be used on animals and birds to treat against external parasites (lice, fleas, mites), and even internal parasites (worms). Natural plant protection against insects: DE is the organic way of controlling insects in the garden, greenhouse, orchard, and other places. Natural Insecticide: When insects come in contact with diatomaceous earth, it absorbs their protective wax coating and their shells are damaged by the glassy diatoms. These plants have been part of the earth's ecology since prehistoric times, yet their species still exists today in both salty and fresh waters all over the world.If you are applying to flat surfaces, a light coating is best – it’s a good tip to tap it through a flour seive and look for an application similar to icing sugar on a cake.

One of the benefits of diatomaceous earth for insect control is that the insects have no way to build up a resistance to it, which can’t be said for many chemical control insecticides. We care about what you put in your bodies, which is why we only use premium quality ingredients, for effective absorption and without any nasty additives. Its advisable to apply DE to your dog outside as it often creates dust that may be dry out eyes and airways. Due to Organ-X Powders non-chemical action, insects cannot become immune or build-up resistance to the product.The DiatomPure®, DiatomPest® and all products denoted with ® are registered trademarks or trademarks of Natural Supplies Limited.
