Tools and Hardware Reviews of Concern 97064 Diatomaceous Earth Crawling Insect Killer 4 Pound Bag
Customer Review: Fantastic way to control insects, organically!
Summary: 5 Stars
Living in Northern Illinois we have problems with lots of insects during the summer months, (specifically ants and earwigs). My husband and I do not have children or pets and together we keep a very clean house. When I first started noticing ants, earwigs, spiders, etc, I tried products from local hardware and home improvement stores and noticed minimal results. Then I went to a costly, professional pest control service and noticed slightly better results, however I still had bugs in my house on a regular basis. I decided to research other pest control methods and stumbled across diatomaceous earth and how it controls pests organically. I read about the positive results people had experienced using it for pest control and how the bugs can't develop a resistance to it. My understanding about the way it works is when the bug gets the powder on itself, the powder actually scrapes the bugs and they end up dying from dehydration. (Similar to a human walking through glass.) (I know it's kind of gross...) Anyway, I decided to give it a try and am very happy that I did. Practically overnight my husband and I stopped seeing earwigs and other bugs in the house. We were simply amazed with the quick results and, since this is organic, we were very happy that we were no longer being exposed to chemicals. I have a few potted plants outside and was so frustrated that they were dying despite regular watering, sunlight and use of a top-grade fertilizer. One night I noticed an earwig crawling around the rim of the pot and wondered if they were the cause for my plants doing so poorly. I decided to put some diatomaceous earth around the top of the pots, (in the dirt), as well as the base of the pots and could not believe how quickly they all perked up. I have to say that these plants have tripled in size since the addition of the diatomaceous earth. I have never had blooming plants look as terrific as these do.
The only drawback to this product is that it must be reapplied after being rained on, but it's a small price to pay to have a bug-free home and beautiful plants. A co-worker of mine kept complaining about ants in her house, (she has kids and pets), and said she's done everything she can think of, (bleaching, chemicals, extra cleaning, covering pet food, etc), but still had ants. I told her about the diatomaceous earth, how it's organic and how I was impressed with the results. She purchased this same product, (Concern diatomaceous earth), and could not believe how quickly it stopped the ants from coming into her house. She has not seen even one ant in her house since a day or so after she put the diatomaceous earth around the perimiter of her house. I would highly, highly recommend this product to anyone who has problems with bugs in their home, in their potted plants or garden.
