Product Description

Diatomaceous Earth - not just completely natural but certified organic, a food grade fine white powder that provide a fantastic array of uses in the household, on the farm, and in commercial and horticultural applications.

Quite simply Diatomaceous Earth is the fossilized remains of ancient algal shells called Diatoms or Phytoplankton. Diatoms are the grass of the waterways of the planet.  Much in the same way grass is the staple food of land based herbivores. Diatoms (algae) are the foundation basis of all aquatic life and form the most plentiful group of individual species known to man.  There are more types of Diatoms in the world than all land plants combined.

Uses for Pets:

Internal Parasitic Control - DE can be taken internally by your pets to assist with internal parasitic control.  Fed daily, food grade Fossil Shell Flour will help to eliminate roundworms, tapeworms, hookworms, whipworms, pinworms and lungworms.  You can expect roundworms, whipworms, pinworms and hookworms to be passed out within seven days of daily feeding of food grade diatomaceous earth.  Daily feeding is generally recommended for year round protection of internal parasites and general health and well being.  The daily application in your pets normal diet will result in the consistent presence of DE in their stools.  This will discourage flies from landing on them, laying eggs and hatching more, therefore reducing the fly population overall.

External Parasitic Control - Dogs and cats, any household pets that are furred or feathered can be dusted in DE to discourage fleas, ticks, mites and lice and other external blood sucking parasites.
