EXTERNAL PARASITE CONTROL
APPLICATION WARNING:
Apply carefully avoiding windy conditions.
Be very careful not to inhale diatomaceous earth (you or your pet) while applying the powder as the silica can irritate and/or inflame and/or scar the lungs.
Avoid getting diatomaceous earth in your / your pets’ eyes because the silica’s fine, abrasive nature can cause irritation and discomfort.
For best results, treat all affected areas of the home (bedding, furniture, carpets etc.) at the same time you treat your pet for fleas and ticks. That way, you can ensure you’ll be eliminating larvae and eggs as well as the adult fleas and ticks.
Apply to your pet’s coat once a week for a month, and then as needed.
Use a brush or comb to gently work the powder into your pet’s fur, concentrating on problem areas.
Be careful to avoid your pet’s eye area. Gloves are recommended.
Dust your pet’s bedding and sleeping areas with Diatomaceous Earth as well.
Dust any bedding, furniture, carpeting or other areas of the home. Leave for 24 hours before vacuuming.
Kills adult fleas and ticks within 72 hours of contact.
Bear in mind that unlike chemical external parasite control products, DE can only work if it is present on your pet’s body. In high infestation months or areas, you can use it more regularly, even daily, if necessary. And you would have to re-apply if your pet gets wet.
