3Not really useful for fleas or spiders.  Dec 17, 2009
Almost to the bottom of this 10 pound bag after a few months of using it around the apartment. I got this to combat the flea issue we've been having for months. I've used it all over the carpet and furniture. When I've used the vac, I've put more down. Can't say it's done much for the flea problem. Roaches are all gone though! Also seems to do no harm to spiders either. Very dusty stuff. Fine white powder on everything I own. Clogs up the central air filter as well. All that said, I'd probably buy again to keep away other bugs, just not for fleas or spiders.

1Didnt work for me  Nov 17, 2009
Not only is this product hard to apply.... it didnt work for me.... maybe i didnt put enough down but it just didnt help curb my bug problem at all... not to mention it is messy.... it wasnt worth my money and is now sitting in my closet going to waist..... dont bother.... deal with the chemical ways... they are MUCH more effective

5Works great  Oct 18, 2009
I mixed this with water in a pump pesticide sprayer and sprayed it around the foundation of my house, the soffits, and the area over the basement walls. In about 3 days I noticed a large reduction in the number of living spiders, earwigs, centipedes, etc. Since then I have even added it to my aquarium to remove an Ick infection. Strongly suggest, and a little goes a long way.

5Diatomaceous flea powder and insecticide  Aug 16, 2009
I use this as a flea powder and insecticide for outdoor and feral cats. As a food grade product I sprinkle it around their feeding areas to keep flys away, on their bedding and in their fur when I can get close. When I take the feral cats to the vet they rarely have fleas or ticks. It works great. It is much cheaper than any flea treatment.
My other main use for this is in the garden as an insecticide. I try hard to keep it away from flowers so that bees can pollinate, rather I sprinkle it on the ground and stems.
As a physical insecticide for pets and plants the down side is that it washes away easily so re-treatment is needed.
This stuff is great and I cannot understand why it is not used and recommended by vets and gardeners more.
