Can DE be put directly on your pets?

Answer by Minihaha • Sep 02, 2025
I used spice bottle wen they are empty recycling them for stuff like this is a HUGE help and doesn't create alot of dust in the air either

I am looking for a way to spread to spread diatomaceous earth on the cats and their bedding. I was told their is a "puffer" that will spread it more evenly. Can you help with that?

Answer by Chewy • Oct 16, 2018
If you are concerned about a larger area, such as the garage, carpets, rugs, or furniture, you may want to target those areas by using Diatomaceous Earth's applicators like the Wilcox 3 Quart duster. This duster is not available on Chewy at this moment.

What is the dosage for dogs to be given for worms? How many times Do you put it on their food?

Answer by Chewy • Jun 04, 2018
The dosage for your dog varies with their weight. Under 25 lbs: ½ teaspoon, 25 - 50 lbs: 1-2 teaspoon, 50 - 100 lbs: 1 Tablespoon, and Over 100 lbs: 1-2 Tablespoon.

Would this be effective if I sprinkle it all over my backyard?

Answer by Chewy • Apr 10, 2019
This powder can be used as a natural remedy in your home, yard, garden or homestead. It can be spread over a yard as a form of pest control.

Poorly packaged

There was some leakage of the powder due to packaging for shipping. The bag could have been better protected in a sturdier box so it would not have been crush. It

There was some leakage of the powder due to packaging for shipping. The bag could have been better protected in a sturdier box so it would not have been crush. It was in the same box as the 16lb of cat food. The box had been crushed in the shipping process.

Wonder dust.

I use documacious Earth for a lot of stuff. You can worm your dogs with it. You can dust them for fleas. You can spread it in your chicken co-op, for smell and lice

I use documacious Earth for a lot of stuff. You can worm your dogs with it. You can dust them for fleas. You can spread it in your chicken co-op, for smell and lice. That's why I call it wonder dust.

It didn't kill the flees neither has pet armor , advantage 2, or advertec 2. Spending lots of money to kill flees and I'm wasting my money. 9 cats and we are miserable. I don't get much from ssi to afford 60bucks each flee collars. Or front line, cause I Have to buy more then one box which I've been doing on those other brands so I'm throwing money out the window.

Doesn’t work for chicken mites

May be my bad for thinking it would work for chicken mites, it does not. Watched chicken mites hang out right in the bag of DE and no problem, critters just keep

May be my bad for thinking it would work for chicken mites, it does not. Watched chicken mites hang out right in the bag of DE and no problem, critters just keep crawling. I thought DE would cut hurt them and stop them. Not this one.

This bag is huge and will last me the rest of my life.

I don't know why I needed so much, but I bought it and hope to use it. Time to do some more research.

I do not understand exactly how to use it it

Do you sell sell something to apply it with? Can I rub it directly on my cat?

I sprinkled it all over my carpet and let it sit while I was at work to try to help with a flea problem but somehow that was too much of the stuff bc my vacuum started spitting the powder back out and made a cloud of this powder in the air and it’s taking forever to get it out

Effective inside and out

2 minutes after dusting my dogs with this diatomaceous earth they stopped scratching! I've been adding it to their food as well because it helps with inflammation

2 minutes after dusting my dogs with this diatomaceous earth they stopped scratching! I've been adding it to their food as well because it helps with inflammation and intestinal parasites. I also take it myself for the same reasons. If you're looking for a safe effective flea and tick treatment for both cats and dogs this is your solution.
