Uses for Diatomaceous Earth:
DE has 100’s of uses with pets, animals & livestock of all sizes.
- Dust onto dog beda to help eradicate problems with fleas & ticks and absorb smells & odours.
- It helps stop lice and mites and absorbs strong poo smells & odours when dusted into a chicken dust bath.

When added to your pet’s feed daily, whether it’s your guinea pig, cat, kitten, pup, rabbit, sheep or goat, Diatomaceous Earth can help with digestive & gut issues. The high level of silica & iron, calcium & magnesium in the Diatomaceous Earth assists with strong hair & fur growth and healthy teeth & bones.
How Does Diatomaceous Earth Work?
The purity of this product and the high percentage of mineral silica promote the growth of strong hair, skin and nails. Silica can also help to support and maintain strong bones and teeth by playing a role in the metabolism of calcium in the bones. The mineral silica helps improve circulation, stimulates blood flow to the scalp, and is essential to your pet’s skin’s connective tissues, allowing the skin to become firm. Silica-rich foods have diminished in their natural levels over the years due to our modern farming techniques. Our Ancient Earth DE can raise the silica levels naturally. The Diatomaceous Earth's tiny particles have microscopic sharp edges that sweep like a broom through the digestive tract & gut when consumed.
