HARRIS Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade, 2lb with Powder Duster Included in The Bag

This 2lb bag of food-grade diatomaceous earth is exactly what I needed for natural pest control around the home. The powder duster included makes application easy and precise, which is a big help. I’ve used it in the garden and on problem areas indoors, and it works well without any harsh chemicals. It’s great knowing it’s safe to use around pets and kids while still being effective against insects. Overall, a high-quality product that delivers on its promises. Definitely will repurchase!

I use this to take care of my ant problem, as long as it doesn’t rain it works great.

Well it's Diatomaceous Earth and it's food grad, comes with a powder duster. It's decent enough and does the job.

I’ve been dealing with a roach problem in my kitchen and garage, and after trying sprays and bait traps with mixed results, I decided to give Harris Diatomaceous Earth a shot. I’ll be honest—it’s messy. The fine powder gets everywhere if you’re not careful, and applying it takes some patience. But once it’s down, it works. Within a few days, I started seeing dead roaches around the areas where I applied the powder, which was honestly a huge relief. It’s nice knowing this is a natural, chemical-free option, especially since I have a small dog. The key is to apply a thin layer in areas where roaches travel. A couple of things to keep in mind: It can be dusty, so wearing a mask while applying it is a good idea, and it works best in dry areas since moisture can make it clump or smear as you see in the second photo. Cleanup can be a hassle, but for something that actually gets rid of roaches, I’ll take it. If you’re looking for a solid solution and don’t mind a little mess, this is worth trying.

🔴🚨 💥✞ 🇺🇸 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ SUPER price: It is firm-sturdy with 100% satisfaction. It is very cool and nice, and it is a high-quality product. It is excellent. PERFECT DELIVERY also, THANK YOU.✨💎👍

If you’re having trouble getting rid of fleas on your animals, let me tell you this is one of the best things that you can buy. It has helped within two days where other things have not helped in a month would highly recommend this item.

Decent value. It is a non toxic way to deal with ants in the house. Safe for people & pets. It can get all over because it is a fine powder, but it seems an acceptable trade off.

Diatomaceous earth is surprisingly effective at killing bugs – bedbugs, unwanted beetles, spiders, etc. This particular brand didn’t seem as potent as other ones I’ve used, and honestly, it wasn’t a great price. My roommate asked me to order this because it had the duster in it. I would have just picked some up at the store, for less. But – if you want to order from Amazon, this is probably as good as you can find! As long as you don’t grieve it in, it’s pretty safe stuff. It gets a little messy, but you can just sweep and then vacuum to clean up. It is a fine dust, so just be aware of that.

I specifically bought this to fight bedbugs, ants and roaches and so far it's has been working like magic. 100% recommended over chemicals and sprays. The bottle that comes with makes super to spread an even mist 👍

I had an infestation of either pill bugs (roll into a ball) or sow bugs (curl into a 'C') that ate three of my fibrous begonias when they ran out of rotting matter to eat. I tried beer traps (which, unfortunately, worked on other beneficial insects but not a single pill or sow bug) and tape traps (not a single bug) which is when I decided to give diatomaceous earth a try and I haven't lost a single plant since dusting them so I guess it works. Note that this is very fine powder and it will go everywhere if you use it indoors, so don't use it right after dusting because you're going to have to dust your house again afterwards. I found that using the duster container-side down was too light of a dusting (but maybe that's actually enough -- I'll try just that next time) but still launches a cloud of almost invisible dust that you won't notice until you see it in a sunbeam (which is when you'll realize the entire floor you used this on is now dusted). Using this container-side down with a light press will drop small mounds of dust which may be ideal if you just want it on the soil. Using a hard-press container-side down gives you a nice heavy dusting (whether that's too much I don't know but since the bugs are gone it definitely did the job) but you'll need to clean the leaves off at some point unless you like your plants looking like a black-and-white photo. I wore protective eye wear and a mask when applying this but, as I mentioned, the dust goes everywhere so I did breath some in and get some in my eyes but neither my eyes nor throat seemed particularly irritated as a result. It's food grade so you don't need to worry about swallowing it -- it's just your eyes and lungs you need to protect. This 2 kg bag was about ten or twenty times more than I needed so I'll have lots if I ever have problems with ants or earwigs or whatever someday in the future. If you're using this outdoors I think it would probably be enough for several applications of a large backyard vegetable garden.

Very good product, thank you

I live in a small city so my vegetable garden consists of several raised beds, and a couple of free standing large pots. I also plant/seed according to "companion planting" meaning you group plants that "like" each other, and grow well together without depleting each other's resources. This kind of planting also prevents many bug/pest problems as the plants kind of protect each other. Also, adding a row or two or marigold, chamomile, mint, and other herbs helps to keep the bugs away a bit. Last year, the biggest issue I had was with aphids; seems like there were millions of them everywhere, adults, eggs and all that sticky stuff they excrete, especially on dill and the black currant bushes. The dill was nearly all throw-away but... My solution was the diatomaceous earth, and it worked ok but I also got a shipment of ladybugs from Costco (don't seem to carry this year), and they did an excellent job, too. This year's issues are stinkbugs on spinach and peppers, and those nasty red-shelled bugs that decimate my lillies. Of course, diatomaceous earth to the rescue again as I do not use any chemical sprays around our yard (pets, grandkids, and my own immune system). After just one very thorough application, all the stinkbugs seem to have vanished. As a precaution, I have disposed of the large spinach plants, and left the baby ones in place. So far, no bugs reappeared. The lillies seem to be almost bug free as well; I spotted just a few this morning, as opposed to the greens being heavily peppered with the red bugs. On the note of the puffer; it really is not as bad as some reviewers state. Granted, the nozzle seems to clog up a bit, but a light tap on the bottom or side of the puffer clears that nearly instantly. My guess is, whomever had so much "issue" with the puffer not dispensing well, failed to read the instructions. The product dispenses very well, and you can cover a very large area with the amount of powder provided. All you have to do is ensure you stay "up wind" from it (or pick a non-breezy day to do this), so you do not inhale the *very* fine dust. That, and a 24 hour of no rain helps the product to do its job. Diatomaceous earth, especially the food grade such as this one, is an excellent non-chemical, non-toxic method of pest control, also great for deworming your pets, and getting rid of yeast overgrowth in your gut. I will continue to use diatomaceous earth as my pest control method of choice.

Under attack from bed bugs? The first thing to buy is not this but a mattress encasement. You need to save your mattress if possible, though you may have to sacrifice the bed frame if it is made from wood. The buggers will creep into the tiniest of crevices. The following must be done BEFORE you are attacked. You have to spend a whole day properly gluing together solidly a shaky wooden bed frame, then caulking the joints if it the frame is composed of sections that you assemble. If the frame is unpainted, take advantage to put in the work: use primer (undercoat), then paint, and afterwards caulk the joints after assembling sections.. You want to limit their mobility to minimize propagation. For bed bugs, the diatomaceous earth is good for applying to the inside of drywalls while you are sealing outlet/switch plates with gaskets. These precautions will help to limit their movement inside walls. Use the puffer to apply. You can also, using the puffer, apply along the lower reaches of walls (the lowest two feet) to again limit their mobility. The powdery earth sticks to the wall due to static. Be careful about breathing this powder in (can irritate) and about applying it with pets around. Buy giant clear bags and storage totes and get used to storing your clothes and linen in these. You will be living like this for months or possibly years. Most importantly, embark on a minimalist journey, you certainly don’t need most of the things you have been accumulating all your life; give them away to friends and family (without gifting any hitchhiking bed bugs). All this may help your mental health. Diatomaceous earth also works well if you have to deal with a giant ant colony in your garden/lawn. For this, I also recommend flooding with diluted dish soap (attacks the exoskeleton) and continuing to flood regularly with the garden hose.
