HARRIS Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade, Half Pound with Easy Application Puffer Tip

This is amazing!!! I bought it for a thrip infestation on my begonia plant. I had tried everything else under the sun!!! I sprinkled this on the soil and within a few weeks and 2 applications they are gone!!!! Great value! It’s doesn’t take very much! Keeps the pest away! I have been applying it to all my houseplant soil to kill anything that’s lurking !! Get some if you are battling houseplant pests!!

I keep my apartment clean but ants were coming in from outside at night. The first night I put this down the ants were still coming but every night after...I have not seen a single ant! It really works. And to be honest it's hardly noticeable.

Order came fast. I have used this before on ants and worked great. They take it to hive and it dries them out dead. Highly recommend it.

Probably the safest bug killer made, if you use it correctly and makes a little mass and you can see it but it does take care of the problem if you do it right. That means getting rid of all the junk in your house and putting it on all the baseboards or behind the refrigerator behind the stove as I believe, it is not dangerous to animals because it works Anatomically and roaches and ants. If you really use the stuff or you have a restaurant setting, it’s better to go to a hardware store or outdoor shop and buy a large bag of diatomaceous earth . used to be able to get it at the dollar store One star off for being messy, but that’s the nature of the beast

Oh yes if you want to erratacate ants buy this product. I had ants under both bathroom and kitchen sinks and now not a one. I also sprinkled it out side where I usually have problems and no ants anywhere. I will buy more next year. Definitely would recommend to anyone.

I purchased this product as I'm in an apt bldg that I was told by Orkin they were finding bedbugs! My cabinets had weevils, I personally can't stand bugs! So I purchased this product because it's food grade & safe to use around my cats, who pay no attention to it! But I put this all around the perimeter of my apt so bed bugs will not come in! I used it in my cabinets and I've seen no bugs period! I had used this product in Fla. and it kept all bugs out even roaches. I highly recommend this product and a look little goes a long way! It's priced right too and easy to apply. 👍🏻

I haven't used it. The only complaint I have as of right now is that it wasn't sealed when I got it. I just now went to open it and noticed it. It also was only about 3/4 full. Is that because it was opened and some taken out or was it due to shrinkage like everything else? I

This review was also posted under on the products mentioned below.Because of ant's excavations under my patio, I've removed all pavers, added sand and put them back down, twice. Enough is enough.The ants are pretty small, about 1/8" (3mm) long and can be found all around my foundation, yard perimeter & driveway. I've poured some high-priced liquid concentrates (diluted per directions) around the house, and other locations. It didn't seem to help, so opted to try a gel.Amazon reviews were both good & bad for the same product, so I bought one Hot Shot Ultra Clear Roach & Ant Gel Bait and one Syngenta 68078 Advion Singular Tube Ant Gel Lure to compare.The Hot Shot gel seemed to get a lot of yawns from the ants - they seem to be uninterested, although the next days, some of it was gone.Advion got a lot of attention. Groups of up to a dozen or more immediately clustered around the small, pea-sized blobs I put down. The next day, the Advion was gone from all locations.While hoping for an immediate end to the Advion-treated ants, that didn't happen. 3 days later, I'm still putting it down next to the ant hills and they continue to take it away. More hills appeared today, after a light rain yesterday.Since it's getting attention, I'll buy another 1 oz. tube and hope for the best. Maybe the nest has multiple queens, and I haven't gotten to them yet.=====================9/11/22 Follow upAlthough the number of patio anthills reduced, the ants continue to thrive. So, I ordered more stuff to try.To summarize my efforts:1. tried Hot Shot clear gel - ants ignored it.2. Used one tube of Advion for a week or more - ants took away all I put down, but they kept coming back.3. Put down Terro bait traps which were ignored.4. Put down Terro liquid which resulted in a noticeable reduction in the number for ants around my driveway, but not the patio. Different species?5. Sprinkled Harris Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth on patio & around foundation and driveway. No apparent results yet (3 days), but I read it may take from a couple of days to a couple of weeks. Dangerous stuff to inhale.My patio ants don't seem to be affected by the liquid & gels used so far. Keeping my fingers crossed re the diatomaceous earth.Next efforts will include Borax/peanut butter mix, vinegar, then . . . ?==============================Update 9/23/22Success at last.After sprinkling moderate applications of DE (Harris Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth) on/around the patio anthills & trails, the patio ants have disappeared. The very few stragglers that appear seem to be coming in from under the adjacent chimney chase which was hard to get to, but I'll put some down as well as I can. There are also no visible signs of ants on/around the driveway.There is still moderate ant activity in the rock border around the back yard and other areas of the house foundation where I lighted sprinkled the DE. A heavier application will be soon applied.Re a concern I have about using the DE:I have two dogs who are always snuffling around the yard to check out new smells. Inhalation of DE is very dangerous - it can cause breathing issues from nose, throat, lung irritation, to even destroying tissue. Warnings are on the container. The dogs were monitored closely to keep them away from the patio. Fortunately, a few days later, a light rain seemed to dilute the DE to the point of appearing to be gone. But I'm guessing it simply helped to move the DE into spaces between the pavers. The biggest reduction of ants seemed to be AFTER the rain. Reports I've read say water won't deactivate the DE - it's still active/potent but can't be seen. And the dogs are paying no special attention to the patio.Hopefully, this has cured my patio problem and repaving won't be necessary again.
