Safer Brand Crawling Insect Killer Dust, 4 lb

Safer Brand Diatomaceous Earth (D.E.) controls a range of crawling insects, including ants, bed bugs, cockroaches, and fleas. This ready-to-use, powder-like insecticide can be applied to cracks and crevices, the places where insects spend most of their time. Once insects contact or ingest this dual-action powder, it begins working to completely kill them within 48 hours. Diatomaceous earth is a non-staining treatment with no odor and can be used in pet areas to eliminate flea and other insect infestations. Be sure to follow all instructions to safely remove the D.E. before allowing pets back into the area. What is D.E.? It is made up of fossilized particles of microscopic creatures called diatoms. These fossil shards feel soft and powdery to us, but to insects (and spiders and centipedes) they are deadly. The particles work their way into the insect's exoskeleton and puncture through to the inside, causing the creature to die of dehydration. Apply Diatomaceous Earth to rid your home or business, inside and out, of problem insects. Reapply if D.E. gets wet, and always follow application and removal instructions.
