Diatomaceous Earth

People who are looking for an organic, non-pesticide way to keep pests from their garden might get good results using diatomaceous earth. Diatomaceous earth is a powder made of 100-percent organic ground fossils of diatoms that came from fresh water. It kills many pests, including ants, snails, cockroaches and other insects.

In using the natural and non-toxic product diatomaceous earth, it is important to know how to spread it most effectively around your yard and over the grass to get the maximum coverage and not waste the product. Some people have never used diatomaceous earth for pest control, and if you are not familiar with it, then you might want to look it up online for more information. It is safe to use around pets and children, as long as there is no prolonged breathing in of the product. Like any dust, respiratory problems could occur if care is not taken to treat your grass and plants when there is no one around but you.

We recommend JT EATON 100% Natural  Which is odorless, non-staining, economical. It works well on fleas and ticks on carpet. It is approved for use in hospitals, schools, restaurants, nursing homes, food and feed processing, and establishments. For the control of Cockroaches,  ants, silverfish  bed bugs  Palmetto bugs,  Waterbugs, Ants Spiders, Crickets,   Earwigs, Flies box elder bugs, ticks, garden slugs, and other crawling insects such as houseflies, elm leaf beetles, silverfish, ticks, sowbugs, and millipedes.

  1. Step1

     

    Understand how diatomaceous earth works. While it seems like a harmless powder to us, it is actually quite sharp and hazardous to insects. It must come in contact with the pest to be effective. It will scratch and puncture the exoskeleton of soft-bodied insects, thereby causing them to dehydrate and die. Hard-bodied insects will absorb the diatomaceous earth into their spiracles, eyes and other entry points into the body.

  2. Step2

    Look for agricultural or horticultural grade, rather than pool grade.

  3. Step3

    Make a shaker out of an old coffee can and an extra lid to make application a little easier, and reduce waste,. Punch holes in the bottom of the can with a nail. Cover this end of the can with your extra lid. Fill the can and cover the top with your other lid. Place a lid from a second can on the other end for storage. Simply remove the lid covering the holes when you are ready to sprinkle diatomaceous earth on your garden.

  4. Step4

    Apply the diatomaceous earth when you don't expect rain in the next few days. If it does rain, reapply the powder as soon as the plants and ground dry out.

  5. Step5

    Dust plants with a layer of the diatomaceous earth. In addition, coat the ground around the plants. Look for anthills and other insect nests. Apply the powder directly to these nests.
