FLEAS,WORMS,PARASITES- How to use Diatomaceous Earth as Preventative for Dog

[Guest guest]

" For young plants, as little as 2 lbs. per acre may be adequate.

For larger plants, 5 lbs. per acre is probably sufficient. It applies

best when there is dew or after a light rain. It is a long-lasting,

natural, effective powder, impossible for insects to build up

resistance against. "

 

I think it's important to address the aforementioned with a quote from

http://www.zetatalk.com/food/tfoox041.htm:

 

 

" If you want to use it on plants, don't get any on the flowers. It'll

slice up the few honeybees we have left. And I don't recommend

incorporating mass quantities into the soil. Earthworms are good

things...Diatomaceous Earth is also effective against fleas, but

again, take care not to let your pet breathe it. "
