> 3 dayI’ve been using Diatomaceous Earth for several years around the house and in the yard. This purchase came with a thing to spread it around outside, much more convenient & efficient than using a measuring cup to spread it. I’ve found it to be very effective on large anthills outside and along the wall when we had ants inside. I mixed a tbsp or so in my cats’ food when several of them had tapeworms from fleas, put it down along the walls inside the garage, around the border of the house on the outside, under & directly on the front/back deck & porches, and in the crawl space to cut down on bugs. DE is the only pest control method I use, aside from topical/oral flea treatment on my pets, because it’s safe to use around animals and humans! When the exterminator came to do a termite inspection, he commented that was a good choice to control pests around the house, enough said for me!

Greater than one weekGreat product! Use it in the garden and make my own supplements with a capsule filler and a little bit of citric acid. The 4lb bag at this price gives me plenty for both. The applicator/blower is garbage. Upside down does just a little bit more than nothing. Outlets on the bottom will blow 90% of it out in the first two puffs and leave you with a stopped up mess, and after just a few tries the sides of the bellow are starting to wrinkle and bind. I ended up using an 8oz squeeze bottle and thats worked out perfect for the garden application. It can be very messy working with such a large bag so recommended that you use it outside with good air flow.

> 3 dayIm SOOOOO EXCITED about this! I have been using it for 9 months in my artwork. Then it felt as if something, maybe God, kept bringing it to mind. After hearing about it about 4 more times I dug in to research it. I started taking it immediately and gave it to my dogs. Both of my dogs are 15 and they both almost died about 2-3 months ago at different times. My pain in my wrists and hands went from a 9 to a 3 in 4-5 days, Ill take it daily. My dog Sabian had the death look in her eyes and everyone told me to prepare my heart. When my dog Oscra almost died instead I was in shock. I hadnt prepared my heart for that. When I found the all the info on the diatomaceous earth I was hopeful. It worked so fast! My dogs, one of which could never climb one step, is now running and jumping up the 2 steps coming into my house. Within 2 days I noticed how much energy I had. I kept getting compliments on my hair and skin looking so good. Day 4 I got soooo much relief in my joints. My joint pain went from a 9 to a 3! I bought 60 lbs to give away! I gave away my 1 st 4 lb bag within the first week so Im hopeful that we are all on our way to healing. My body is detoxing but at a tolerable rate. It is easy to do life with this. It may change after Ive been on it a bit longer. This is week one. Ive never had anything Ive ever tried work this fast. Just dont breathe it or let your animals breathe it. It you or your animals are sick, sprinkle castor oil in their kibble then the diatomaceous earth, mix it up so they cant breathe it. For people, just put a teaspoon in tea or coffee 3 times a week. The castor oil does a seek and destroy mission on any viral infections. So if you try it...youll know really fast if it works. My pain went from a 9 to a 6 in my back from the castor oil. Then I fell down a flight of stairs. I use about 1/4-1/2 tsp of castor oil to the same amount D.E. for my 10 pound dogs. I dont measure, I just guesstimate it. My dogs like it and they have gotten so much better than Ive ever seen them. Bless you in your process. This is an amazing product! Wow!

> 3 dayI use this for the vegetable garden and to discourage household pests. A little goes a long way and it is a readonably safe and effective natural bug deterrent. I put it under the built-in heaters, around where pipes go through the wall, on outer sills of windows that are close to ground level, under the fridge, under the stove, etc. to discourage insects and it is very helpful. I do not use the duster indoors as diatomaceous earth dust is dangerous to breathe or to get in your eyes. Always wear a safety mask and safety goggles when using it, make sure no kids or pets or anyone else is around, clean up after yourself to remove extraneous dust, and only apply it where kids and pets will not get at it. This is food grade and completely safe to ingest for people and animals - many people eat it as a health supplement and it is commonly fed to livestock - but breathing it in or getting it in your eyes is a no no as the particles in the dust are sharp. I have seen it applied carelessly with no ill effects to anyone, but better safe than sorry. This particular brand has a good reputation and 4 lbs. is perfect for my needs.

Greater than one weekI 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 dayI’m apparently really oblivious because when I bought this I didn’t realize it came with a nifty little tool to spritz the diatomaceous earth around with, but it works really well and the addition of it is much appreciated! I’m using this as a sort of barrier to keep potential (ear) mites from going into my bunny area while I treat them with Revolution so it’s gonna be hard to say if this specifically does anything to help but, I don’t doubt the efficacy.

Greater than one weekTo be honest I am not all together sure what its actual use is, I just know I read it could get rid of fleas. It does do that temporarily. Should you be using it for that DO NOT use the spryer that comes with it. I did and it got everywhere, I literally had to clean it off of everything in my room. The better albeit harder way to do it is to find something to put it in and sprinkle it. When my sister used it she used a mason jar and poked holes on the lid. If you have a tiny flea problem this will solve it for a month or so, if you have a big flea problem you’re looking at it lasting a week at best. Again, I don’t know what it’s actually used for, so this review is based on what I used it for.
