Livestock and Garden Grade Diatomaceous Earth Mined here in Australia, mainly used as an additive to livestock, poultry, pet feed, dusting pens and adding to grains for pest control and worming.
Diatomaceous Earth can be used for dusting green houses, dusting fruit, flower and vegetable crops. Can be done even on day of harvesting crops with no harm to animals or humans as it is pure and organic. Don't dust when Bees are present.
Please Note: Although this fossil shell flour is food grade, it has not been sterilised, hence is it NOT suitable for human consumption.

Horticulture
- Before planting – use 2-5 kgs per 15 metre row
- Mixing with soil – 250g to a hole 300mm wide by 300mm deep
- 500g to 8 litres water to spray top and underside of leaves
- Approximate coverage for gardens:
- 250g will treat 25 square metres

Agriculture
- As anti-caking agent in grain – 2% per volume

* High quality silica has a residual effect when used in soil and depending on the soil conditions prior to first application its subsequent application rate will most likely be reduced and may even be unnecessary for a period of 1 to 3 years.
