For Our Best Friends
PETS: Our best friends come in all shapes and sizes. Protect them with Diatomaceous Earth. When lightly rubbed into their coats and dusted in your pet's area, Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth is very effective against Lice, Mites, Fleas, and Ticks on dogs, cats, and birds. Just rub gently into the pet's coat - there's no need to make sweeping movements that would create a cloud of powder. It's always best not to inhale any fine powder directly. For an Ear Mites remedy for your pets, simply rub a pinch of DE onto the skin on both sides of the ear flaps daily for a month or so to kill existing and newly hatched mites. Do not use a "puffing" applicator that might get into the ear canal or damage the ear drum. Common sense, diatomaceous earth and keeping up with the program makes a great home remedy to get rid of ear mites on your dogs and cats. Our one gallon jar ($11.50) is a good size to have on hand for multiple uses, and is easy to store, handle, and dispense from.
Safe for pets and people, Diatomaceous Earth kills by physical action, not chemical. The tiny diatoms scratch off the insect's waxy coating, and dehydrate it. DE is also an effective organic wormer and will kill any worms or parasites the pets may have. When using as a daily pet food supplement or as a safe wormer, mix Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth with pet food.
