Harris Diatomaceous Earth Crawling Insect Killer, 4lb with Powder Duster Included Inside The Bag

I bought this Harris Diatomaceous Earth to deal with some ants and other crawling bugs around the house, and it’s been working really well. The powder is super fine and not sticky at all — it spreads easily and doesn’t leave any kind of residue or mess. The little powder duster that comes in the bag is really handy. It makes it easy to apply the product in corners, along baseboards, and even outside around the foundation. The bag itself seals tightly, so there’s no worry about it spilling or getting moisture inside. The product quality feels high, and you don’t need to use a lot for it to be effective. For the size of the bag, it’s a great deal — plenty of powder for multiple applications. Pros: easy to use, clean to apply, good seal on the bag, great value Cons: none — it works just as described Overall, this is a great natural way to control insects without harsh chemicals. I’d definitely buy it again.

Works great, ants at front door, and one of my bedroom windows. My son n law sprinkled powder outside around my window and front door. Seems to me Ants don’t want to get in near it. Not sure, but they’re staying away from door and stopped coming in my window. I like that it’s not toxic, I have budgies free 24/7 I will not use it inside my room because it’s a powder. will not work if it gets wet, not an issue for me. I’ll just put more.

Great price and larger bottle than I thought it would be. Easy to use with the nozzle so didn’t need a duster. Killed the bugs in our apartment and strength was good.

Works well with adult roaches. Takes a little longer with baby ones. Maybe because the weight difference. I believe one they crawl on the powder it cuts them and the die in their nest area. So far I believe it's working. I feel better knowing this is safe because of my fur babies. The powder is made from ground shells.

I live in public housing and there is a huge bug problem... roaches & bedbugs. I had both for a while until someone suggested Diatomaceous earth. I put some of this all over the place at first, right on the kitchen counters where roaches crawl, all around the bed, even on the bedframe itself on the flat parts, I put it everywhere I saw a bug ; Didn't take long for the entire population of both kinds of bugs to die off. I rarely see a roach or a bedbug now, despite the neighbor's places crawling with them. I can live like a normal person while others , who refuse to even consider doing the work it takes, live in squalor. This stuff made my life so much better I keep a bag of it around to help others if they will take it. If you don't get it wet it will last a very long time. Bugs crawl through it and die quite soon after. It's safe as long as you wear a mask while applying it with the applicator. It's so good that the exterminator does not come in my apartment, he says I do a better job than his spray can do. He says I have the best apartment in the building as far as lack of bugs goes. It has no smell. It doesn't blow around unless you point a blast of air directly at it. You can make little berms of it wherever bugs crawl ; they crawl through it and then they die soon after, carrying it back to the nest where it will kill others too. GREAT PRODUCT all natural just don't breathe it in directly and even if you do it won't hurt you in small amounts just agitate your throat a little bit.

I swear by this stuff, I have lived in a few rentals that have had bug problems. They build up a tolerance for whatever the pest control is using. It's usually the kitchen, so we put this as a line down around the base boards, between the stove and cabinets as well as between the refrigerator and cabinets. Any key places you've seen the bugs to know they will travel through the powder. Keep in mind, it is very fine, I recommend gloves, eyewear, and a mask. Now, for this option, I did not like the tool included as it would get clogged every few pumps, I would have to take the attachment off and tap it out before repeating that over. It was also buried in the bag so it was covered and made a huge mess before I even got started. When I was done and tried closing the bag, the zipper would not work because the powder was compacted in the line. I tried cleaning it out but I could never get it to close, I ended up folding it over and using a big binder clip to keep it shut. Not impressed with the packaging.

I am absolutely TERRIFIED of bugs, and I’ve tried every natural option I could find. This Harris Diatomaceous Earth is now my go-to because it’s safe to use around pets (huge win as a dog owner) and it’s the first thing that’s been 100% effective without harsh chemicals. How It Works This isn’t an instant kill like chemical sprays, and it doesn’t repel insects from entering. Instead, once bugs come into contact with it, they don’t stick around for long. I’ve seen ants, roaches, and even centipedes disappear after applying a thin layer. It takes a little patience, but the results are consistent. Best Tips • Sprinkle a thin layer along outside the front and back doors, baseboards, under sinks, or near appliances • Keep it dry (moisture stops it from working) • I move my dog out of the room while applying and use a light hand to keep dust down. What could be better: The container tip clogs often. A quick tap on a hard surface clears it, but it can be frustrating. It’s also a fine powder, so it can get dusty (a mask or gentle application helps) Bottom Line If you’re like me and want something natural, effective, and safe for pets, this is it. The packaging could be improved, but the peace of mind is priceless.

Love this product. It works great. The price was right and I definitely like that it’s safe for pets and my plants. I think it works great because I noticed a dead bug was by an area where I sprinkled some. I’m also noticing less gnats flying around after I sprinkled some in my plant soil.

Just get your beds outside to the sun it doesn't work alone you need an actual bug repellent to be acompany it

Awful packaging. Sprinkler is DEEP INSIDE and it's IMPOSSIBLE to get it outside without pouring everything out. Otherwise risk spill and ton of dust around you. And zip-lock doesn't work at all.
