coat a thin layer of dust in the areas where these pests are found or may hide such as cracks and crevices, behind and beneath stoves, refrigerators, sinks, cabinets, garbage cans, around pipes and drains, window frames, and in attics and basements. Hit insects directly where possible. Apply no more than once a week.

The materials listed are 85% silica dioxide. What is in the 15% not listed? Can I use as an additive to concrete? Thanks
Question by: Robin Elkin on Jan 21, 2025, 5:48 PM
Hi, thank you for reaching out!

Our DE is naturally sourced, and therefore there will be other ingredients found alongside the silicon dioxide (minerals and oxides). These ingredients are naturally present in the DE and are not additives. It’s not recommended to use this product as an additive to concrete, as it’s not designed for that purpose and could affect the concrete's strength and durability.

How long after purchase is the chemical good for I need an expiration period
Question by: Joyce on Mar 31, 2025, 2:02 PM
Thank you for reaching out with your question! Diatomaceous Earth does not expire because it is a naturally occurring mineral. It does not break down or spoil over time. As long as it is stored properly—away from moisture and extreme conditions—it should remain effective indefinitely.
