{"product_id":"premium-food-grade-diatomaceous-earth-powder-2-pack","title":"Pest Control- Premium Food Grade Powder, 2 Pack | Natural Mechanical Pest Control for Gardens","description":"\u003cp\u003eControlling stubborn, hard-shelled crawling insects without using harsh synthetic chemicals requires a highly effective, purely mechanical barrier. This premium food-grade diatomaceous earth acts as a devastatingly sharp, microscopic minefield for invading pests, completely stopping them in their tracks. You can confidently secure your valuable plant collection and living spaces with this incredibly safe, naturally mined geological powder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMilled from the fossilized remains of ancient aquatic diatoms, this ultra-fine white dust feels soft to human hands but is incredibly lethal to bugs. When you sprinkle this diatomaceous earth across the paths of ants, beetles, or fungus gnat larvae, the razor-sharp silica particles actively slice through their waxy outer exoskeletons. This severe physical damage causes the insects to rapidly dehydrate and die within hours of contact. Because it is completely food grade and relies on physical destruction rather than toxic chemistry, pests can absolutely never build up an immunity, and it acts as one of the safest soil amendments you can use around curious children and pets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing a small duster or spoon, lightly dust a very fine, continuous ring around the base of your heavy containers and directly over the top of your dry indoor potting soil. It must remain completely dry to function properly, so always reapply it after a heavy watering session or outdoor rainstorm. This convenient 2-pack ensures you have plenty of reliable, natural defense ready to protect your entire household and garden borders.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Diatomaceous Earth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48188285321383,"sku":"772368221600-2pk","price":49.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/8352\/4007\/files\/premium-food-grade-diatomaceous-earth-powder-2-pack.webp?v=1774571311","url":"https:\/\/www.jptgrow.com\/products\/premium-food-grade-diatomaceous-earth-powder-2-pack","provider":"JPTGrow","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
