> 3 dayThis stuff has drastically helped my home . I have two cats an a dog and summer just ended but during summer the fleas were horrible and I hate any type of bugs . I tried everything from shampoos to lotions to sprays , pills I tried it all ….. so I research this stuff diatomaceous earth and I see that you could sprinkle it on your pets for her and rub it in and you can even feed it to them to get rid of ringworms or any type of worms that they have and I will tell you that I just took in an outside cat and I guess she had gotten I think it was larvae from the fleas but anyway she would have little white worms on her butt when she was done using the bathroom but I started putting diatomaceous earth in her wet food I would do a tablespoon and I haven’t seen any after that but I was also giving it to them once a day you got to kind of stay consistently with it . so I do rub this stuff on there fur and I have seen them falling off like they were dead so it takes about a week until you start seeing stuff I also put it in my bathroom I used to have spiders everywhere and I put this stuff down and I haven’t really seen any spiders just buy it it’s worth it it is very messy you’re not supposed to inhale it but it’s safe it’s food grade I do recommend it you just probably should wear a mask and make sure your kids or your pets are not around

> 3 dayPackaging is very solid on this. Its a large bag that will last a long time, so the thickness of it is really appreciated, as is the sealable top. The puffer inside is pretty standard. It does its job. I dont LOVE using it, so if I dont need to I use a paintbrush to lightly dust some on. The puffer tends to distribute as much in the air as it does the surface, but thats pretty much guaranteed with any puffer. Thats how they work. The dust then settles into a nice thin layer. I havent found anything better *that continues to work well* in the constant battle to keep roaches out of my home. I have been told it works equally well on poison-resistant bedbugs and fleas., so thats good information to have in a back pocket too, just in case. All in all, I love the product and I always keep it on hand. Would definitely buy again, and will give 5 stars if they come up with a better puffer solution.

Greater than one weekI put a layer of this DE in all my indoor houseplants and within two days I was rid of all the tiny bugs that were flying around my house.

> 3 dayThis product effectively eliminated ants that had invaded my house. The key is to apply this LIGHTLY. An applicator is included to gently puff this powder where you need it. It should look like a fine smoke coming out. After a few days the ants were gone. Because it is food grade I’m not worried about poisoning pets or family members.

> 3 dayI have used DE for years and started when I raised goats. I needed something that would be friendly for animals but take care of insects. I no longer raise goats but I always use this all over my yard for insects because I have a dog and I don’t like pesticides. Their story is amazing and I will continue to buy Harris. I am very pleased and so glad they make this product. Thanks!

> 3 dayBig bag of diatomaceous earth. All good.
Harris Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth (DE) is composed of 100% ground freshwater DE, with no additives. The product is made of the naturally occuring fossilized remains of diatoms, a type of algae that forms in freshwater. These remains are ground up into a soft, fine white powder that carry many different uses. It"s chemical free and completely safe to use around children and pets.
Harris Diatomaceous Earth is listed with the Organic Minerals Research Institute (OMRI) for organic use. It"s mined in Nevada and packaged in Georgia in a 4lb airtight bag. Included in the bag is a powder duster, allowing for easy application of a fine dusting of powder.
For every ten dollars in profit we receive for Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade, we have pledged to donate $1 to the Etowah Valley Humane Society (EVHS), a private non-profit organization that saves thousands of animals every year. Based in Cartersville, GA a short drive from the PF Harris manufacturing plant, EVHS aims to prevent cruelty, relieve suffering, and provide humane treatment for all animals in need. The organization actively works to eliminate root causes of suffering and acts as an educational resource for the community, with the main goal being to find a great home for animals in its custody. Below are a few of the impressive stats showing the impact EVHS has had on local animal lives in recent years:
- Rescued over 13,000 lives from Bartow County Animal Control since 2010
- Helped increase the number of live animals pulls from Bartow County Animal Control from 69/month to 207/month - a 300% increase
- Assisted in decreasing the Bartow County euthanasia rate six years in a row
Harris’ own Chief Financial Officer, Ed Brush, has been involved with the society for years. Seeing an opportunity to help a local organization doing so much good, PF Harris partnered with EVHS in an effort to combat animal cruelty and find deserving pets a loving home. We hope you will find value in our Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth while knowing that 10% of profits are going toward saving the lives of pets in Bartow County, Georgia.
Powder Duster Included
Use the Harris powder duster with extension nozzle for application of food grade diatomaceous earth. Once filled, screw the cap on tight and turn the duster upside down. Keep powder as dry as possible, as it will clump and not puff properly if wet. Also, be careful not to fill the duster to much when first starting out to prevent clogging.

About PF Harris
Our Story
Problem solving has a long heritage at PF Harris. In 1924, two years after its founding, the company tackled the Calvin Coolidge White House, which had been overrun for years by roaches and water bugs. Harris’s product was so successful in eliminating the scourge that he was described on the front page of the Washington Times as a "vermin slayer" who has just fought a decisive, winning battle with a horde of cockroaches which infested the lower regions of the Executive Mansion.
Over the course of the next few months Harris took “his final feast” to dozens of government buildings, including the Senate Office Building, the Department of Justice, the Supreme Court and Walter Reed Hospital. Success followed success: Each superintendent of the various buildings was highly satisfied with the results.
The company today stays nimble enough to respond to changing market demands, leading the way in the development of numerous products, including natural insect repellents like Swamp Gator and Swamp Gnat which repel biting insects without using deet. Beyond the products it sells, Harris helps customers find easy and economical solutions to pest problems through helpful labeling, instructive videos and personal advice.
It’s a brand with a reliable past and an innovative future. PF Harris is America’s oldest EPA-registered company. With more than 55 products, the company provides solutions to treat everything from roaches and bed bugs to scorpions and stink bugs.
