5.0 out of 5 stars natural vs lab chemicals 19 May 2012
By David J. Webb - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Diatomaceous Earth in food quality is definitely a subject we need to learn more about.
The tips in this book are worth the price of this little book.
I intend to use it as instructed in my garden this year as well as in the house.
It seems to be effective against flies. The smaller insects avoid it.
I am also using it around my cats as this is the season as spring and summer arrive.
A liberal amount in the litter boxes has shown a little bit of a result already.
I would like to see more merchants carrying this book and the Earth locally.
Be careful because there are two different types. One is for swimming pool filters. The other is for around animals like your pets. Find "food quality" on the labels.
The book goes into how much to mix and how to mix it. That is what makes the book worthwhile.

4.0 out of 5 stars Helpfull information 3 Jan 2012
By TLC - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I received this book along with a bag of DE as a gift.
The book has been very helpful and informative.
I don't have any trouble following what they are
trying to say. If I had to say anything negative
it would be that they write out the words Diatomaceous
Earth too many times instead of just abbreviating it.
Otherwise I would recommend the DE and the book together.
Especially if you have no experience using DE, like me.
