Where to Get the Diatomacious Earth for Less -

[Guest guest]

We get ours in the 50# bags for $29. Shipping almost doubles the price, but it's still way less expensive than anywhere else we have found. Every living creature on our place gets almost no food without the DE in it. We dust the chickens with it, and the dogs beds. Several times a day we mix a cupful into canned dogfood and feed it to the chickens and dogs. DE goes inour coffee in the morning, any milk, soup, cereal, whatever we consume we put the DE in it.But put it in AFTER anything has been heated. It is critically important NOT to heat the DE.http://www.groworganic.com/item_PMB105_Diatomaceous_Earth_50_Lb_Bag.html?welcome=T & theses=6288516 > > > > > > > > > > > > > > From: "D" <cerph1000@>> > > > > > > bird mites > > > > > > > Subject: How many of you own pets/animals?> > > > > > > Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2009 15:24:04 -0000> > > > > > > > > > > > > > Put my houseplant outside, on the porch, when I thought it was a carrier.

Crawling Pest Barrier Fossilized shells of tiny

water-dwelling organisms called diatoms which when ground, have

microscopically fine, sharp edges. Used as a barrier to crawling pests

such as slugs, snails, earwigs, etc. (must be dry to be an effective

barrier). Apply early morning or evening to minimize disruption to

beneficials. Use a mask to avoid breathing dust. Product is untreated,

unheated agricultural food grade freshwater D.E. (not the D.E. used in

swimming pools). Contains at least 12 minerals including 19% calcium

and 33% silica. For other D.E. products, see Diatect V, Insect Dust,

and Safer Ant & Crawling Insect Killer.
