If you are looking for an affordable, highly effective way to protect your garden and home from pests, you absolutely need to try this! I purchased the half-pound bag of HARRIS Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth on Amazon, and it has been an absolute game-changer. Right now, my vegetable garden is gearing up for summer, and I’ve been dealing with ants and other annoying pests crawling all over my bell peppers and dahlias. With a massive harvest of various peppers, melons, and other veggies coming in over the next month, I wanted to be proactive and stop these bugs before they could do any real damage. This product has worked beautifully! I’ve been using it for a little over a month now, and the results speak for themselves. My routine is simple: I water my garden one day, and the next day once things are dry, I apply this all throughout the garden bed. While it doesn't happen overnight, I have noticed a massive reduction in pests—and some days, I don’t see a single ant! Here is why I love it: It Works: Dramatic reduction in ants and garden pests within just a few weeks. Pet-Friendly & Safe: Because it’s food-grade, I feel completely comfortable using it around the garden. Versatile: I recently learned it can be used inside the house too! I plan on applying it around my front door and patio door to catch the little pests trying to sneak inside. Incredible Value: For under $10, you truly cannot go wrong. If you want a safe, budget-friendly solution to keep your plants safe and your home pest-free before the summer heat hits, give this a try. You won't regret it!

I had carpenter bees and carpenter ants attacking my shed... Have paid for multiple pest control companies to address the problem over the past 3 years but the bees always return. I bought this food grade diatomaceous earth last week and dusted the wood around the base of my shed and literally watched the bees try to land and get into the wood and they refused to touch the wood! One landed for a minute and then flew off and others just flew around looking for an untreated area to crawl into. They finally gave up and flew away!! IThis never happens - they usually land and crawl right up behind the wood into their tunnels without hesitation. I'm Shocked at how effective this stuff is!!! Very happy with my purchase ! Highly recommend this product.

after some research, i paired this with neem oil and ant bait stakes to try and get rid of ants in my indoor house plants. and it killed all of my ants within a week or two, this was a huge savior for my plants. not totally sure which thing killed all my ants, but a combo of these 3 did the trick perfectly worth the price to get all 3. i only used a little bit to kill the ant in several plants, so this will certianly last a long time if used in a similar way. it was super easy to use, just squeeze and the powder fluff out, pretty satisfying. its not very noticable after a day and is great for your plants, would highly reccomend!

Bought this for pest control seems to be doing a good job since I haven’t seen any crickets or cockroaches in my backyard or home. The tip was a bit frustrating to use as it comes too little with the nozzle or too much taking the tip off. This application I would recommend getting an diatomeceous earth applicator. Overall pretty good value for the money.

Best thing for killing hard shelled creepy crawlies. Ants, roaches, beetles. Anything with an exoskeleton. Is not immediate but still quick. And safe around pets.

I bought the bigger bag for outside and I bought this one for inside. The effectiveness is spot on it doesn’t harm pets plants everybody’s healthy. It’s versatile no taste no odor pet friendly. Effectiveness was spot on within 24 hours

I don’t know that I can say much other than, the product description here (which led me to buy it) isn’t borne out by the product label. I didn’t see the backside of the product package until it arrived, and that has a label saying it’s for animal feed and not for use as a pesticide. Here’s a photo of the back along with the front; I used yellow highlighting on the photo to highlight where it says it’s for animal feed and not pesticide use. Yet below, I’ve copied and pasted the product description, which said it can be used as a pesticide. This is too bewildering for me, since the label said it’s not to be used that way I’m returning it for a refund. I have to rate it so I’m just going with 3 stars but I really don’t know how it works as animal feed (let alone for pesticide use). Thanks anyway, and God bless! “Top highlights “Food-grade formula safe for pets, kids, and plants “ Puffer bottle reaches tight cracks and crevices easily “All-natural powder eliminates bugs without chemicals “ Summarized from product information * 100% Chemical-Free: Made from 8oz of food-grade freshwater diatomaceous earth with no additives or fillers.

easy application and works well. Does not kill immediately but it isnt meant to. Slowly kills and deters insects from that area. We are pretty humid here and it needs to be dry for it to work best but it does work very well.

It got rid of the earwigs that were in my shed

Effective physical insect control. Has dramatically decreased the number of insects in indoor areas where I used it to line entrypoints. Apparently it's non-toxic, so I definitely prefer it over insecticides. But it's more a preventative/supplemental measure than a solution. For something like ant infestations, I'd suggest you use it in conjunction with ant bait (don't pour this around the bait though, you want those ants to live). It comes out like baking powder. I just poured a little in the desired areas then spread it using a small brush. The included spout isn't convenient for larger areas, so I'd suggest something like a bulb duster instead for that. You're apparently only supposed to apply a very thin layer to flat surfaces, because if you can clearly see it then the insects can definitely see it and will avoid it. Not that effective outdoors as rain will wash it away.

Arrived broken
