info

I use it for worming and fleas,also for bug control in the garden. works great,but for worming dogs i make sure it is food grade , 99percent pure so i dont end up with any surprise side effects. some of the cheaper stuff has a lot of inert ingrediants! Gene P.

USE FOOD GRADE... Google it for human use... lots of folks take it... tastes like dirt... It will take care of all worms....

I had a terrible flea problem this summer and tried everything I could find with no luck. Diatomaceous Earth is the only thing that kept them off the dogs, but it took a few weeks to work completely. I never tried it for wormer, but mine says on the bag it stops working when it gets wet. So how would it work when swallowed?

it

is less effective on the ground, etc. when wet... inside the dog it is fine to destroy parasites.. it is tiny but it has small sharp barbs on it... It tears up the worms and kills em...

This may be true but it's not what the company advertises as the reason for being an effective pest control.

It works by dehydrating the parasites. When this stuff comes in contact with anything that has a waxy exoskeleton it pulls all the moisture from it. Kind of like salt on a snail. That is why it is also used as an absorbent and why it won't work if it is already saturated (wet).

The only side effect I've seen is that my dogs go through ALOT of water.

I bought some @ Tractor Supply! It's called Red Lake Earth. I had heard nothing but good things about it. I let a buddy have it, and a couple pups he used it on, looked really good, but I just took my 4 year old for a check-up, and he had hooks! I would still say it's good stuff!
