 My 2-cents
I raise rawfed dogs and I'm on several forums. I've read a bit on Diatomaceous Earth being used for indoor/outdoor application to rid homes of fleas, ants, ticks, etc. It's also used to kill parasites and worms. My maltipoo had diarrhea that didn't go away so I added 1/4 tspn of DE to her ground turkey and it cleared up quick. For those who have had incidents with parasites, it's a cheap, ongoing additive because you never know when dogs or cats eat stuff that has an adverse affect on them. Putting or adding DE to foods, lawn, carpets, food (etc) is like providing a pool of glass shards for the insects; and it also dehydrates them as well.
Hope that helps. |
