"It's efficacy as a deworming agent in cattle; in both studies cited the groups being treated with diatomaceous earth did not fare any better than control groups.[11][12] " I don't argue with it's use as an external insecticide as it "is commonly used in lieu of boric acid, and can be used to help control and possibly eliminate bed bug, house dust mite, cockroach, ant and fleainfestations.[13] This material has wide application for insect control in grain storage.[1" from wiki link.

sandymere 8,260 Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) The stick man is but a muse, a picture before the pencil. Ps the fish are an incidental aside, like the fossils, books and figures they colour the back drop of an aspect of the owners. They say to know a man look on his book shelf.

stormyboy 1,352 Posted May 5, 2018 Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 DE mode of action on insects is by absorbing the wax from the cuticle not cutting it btw. This causes dessication as the body fluid dries out. Quote Link to post

It is a very fine powder made from the shells of tiny crustaceans millions of years ago. The sharp edges of the powder granules (you'd need a very powerful microscope to see the grains) work their way between the carapace of all insects, not just fleas. They lose body fluids and die. Just work it into the dog's fur all over: might make it a bit white as it feels and looks just like talcum powder. The good thing is that you can also use it, sprinkled or puffed, into kennels, around the house (skirting board cracks, between floor boards, nooks and crannies in furniture: all the places that fleas lay their eggs and where the larvae develop). It has no smell at all, and is not toxic to any living mammal or bird: I used to dust my chickens and their house with it to keep mites away. I haven't had to use any chemical product for years now, and only dust the house once a year, the dogs twice, or if I see a flea, which is very rare indeed and probably only because they've picked one up while they're out. Only downside is that some people might not want to use it in the house, but as I only use it where it can't be seen and the hoover can't reach it's not a problem. And, it doesn't go off. l can tell you something thats better than that, sawdust, it puts chips on their shoulders, they fight like fcuk and kill each other. Quote Link to post
