DiatomPest® Pest Grade Diatomaceous Earth 175g

Latecomer to the succulent world but this stuff is ace. To prevent wee pests moving into our succulents (we had an issue with some compost bought from a local garden centre) we have tarted-up our collection of succulents. A nice layer of this incredible fine dust on the surface of the soil and topped with some nice tiny white stones and no longer do pests have access to the soil. Huzzah. The plants are happy and look classy. Easy to do and made such a difference.

We had bedbugs for months! Spent hundreds of pounds on professional exterminators, and different types of at home bed bug killers. None worked and all were dangerous for my toddler (which meant sleeping in the living room for weeks, until the chemicals settled). But, this worked perfectly. We no longer have bed bugs, and honestly I thought we'd be stuck with those uninvited guests forever. I bought a plastic condiment squeeze bottle to spread the powder and reach small places, and it worked a treat. This works best along side other treatment methods, for example: hoovering every Inch of every corner and everything we own, heating everything that could go into the tumble dryer and putting items I to vacuum suction bags. I used this treatment twice, two weeks apart (hoovering up the remaining powder, to clear up bed bugs and any new eggs, before replacing it after 2 weeks) and there's loads left in the container. Definitely a household essential.

I always have this on hand now. I used to have the white version but this is less noticeable. I use it to keep creepy crawlies at bay and away from entering under doors or via holes/cracks in hidden areas or even under floors. I have noticed a distinct lack of creepy crawlies since I started doing this over the past 5 years or so. I also do other things such as proper sealing holes,etc, but this definitely helps.

Good for ants, it’s take a little while, it’s does work. Very happy.

First things first - this is not your friend if you don't like mess. Essentially this is a dust that you sprinkle everywhere (and i mean everywhere) which should eliminate your initial problem within 48 hours. HOWEVER, it does not destroy eggs, so it needs to stay in place for the entire gestation period of your specific little critter. (and if you are anything like me, a good few months afterward just to make really sure) I am a bit of an obsessive checker now (get evil little insect attacking you in your sleep and then judge) and haven't found any at all since 2 weeks after putting it down. Highly recommend, especially at the price. Also, its food grade, so safe around children and pets.

As I said in another review, if you have this problem, you really should get professionals involved. It's the ONLY way you are going to get ride of the problem. Having said that, this does work, because I did occasionally find some dead ones wherever I left this stuff. However, in order for it really be effective, you do have to make a hell of a mess, and I'm not sure that's really realistic for the majority of households. So the 3 stars is mainly because if the purpose is to eradicate a pest problem, I really don't think this is really going to help all that much. But it does kill them.

Omg.. so happy I’ve spent £500 & more got exterminator in 3 times untold bombs for bedbugs, nearly killed my relationship as I wouldn’t sleep in my bed wanted to move it got bad I had Night trimmers made me I’ll in the end thought nothing was gonna help . Looked at diatom pest powder very cheap.got it put all in cracks and under bed &on mattress & 2 weeks after they r nowhere to b seen , I can’t believe it I’m so happy. It makes sense what it does bugs have to walk though it even baby ones and it stays on them till they die . I can’t believe it fantastic...

I tried to get rid of springtails in flower pot so I covered entire soil with 5mm layer, also tested on couple silverfish trapped in ceiling light. This product did not harm springtails and silverfish at all, even after few days insects still alive.

Ho distribuito il prodotto lungo il muro vecchio e rovinato di casa ed il mattino dopo ho trovato una vera e propria strage di blatte, un piaga che mi assilla da quando ho cambiato casa. Adesso posso dormire sonni tranquilli. L'unico difetto è che arriva senza istruzioni in italiano e non so esattamente ogni quanto devo distribuire il prodotto.

Muy eficaz hasta con hormigas y cucarachas pequeñas.

Buon prodotto mi è stato utile per lo scopo L ho anche prestato e anche gli altri hanno riscontrato L efficacia

En en título pone 200gr, pero en realidad trae 175gr. Si no lo devuelvo es por la cuarentena del covid19 pero es para devolver. No le doy cero estrellas porque no se puede

Lo compré para las hormigas tanto en la terraza y las macetas como en la casa. El efecto no es inmediato y para suelos en interior quizá es un poco engorroso si se usa por todo el trayecto ee las hormigas, porque hay que evitar limpiarlo durante unos pocos días y acaba guarreándose el suelo si no se tiene cuidado, pero realmente acaba funcionando cuando se tiene acceso al hormiguero o a la salida que usen las hormigas. En dos o tres días dejan de verse. Sólo no me ha funcionado cuando salían de detrás de algún mueble, ahí he tenido que usar las trampas de siempre porque cada vez cogían un camino diferente.
