Product details

What are the specifications of this product?

Overview

Diatomaceous earth (DE) is a naturally occurring, soft, siliceous sedimentary rock that crumbles into a fine white or off-white powder. It is composed of the fossilized remains of tiny aquatic organisms called diatoms. The main component of DE is silica (around 80-90%). Types of Diatomaceous Earth: Food Grade – Safe for human and animal consumption; used as a natural pesticide, dietary supplement, and detoxifying agent. Industrial Grade – Used for filtration (e.g., pool filters), as an abrasive, and in various industrial applications. Not safe for consumption.

Product Description

Uses & Benefits:


Pest Control: DE acts as a natural insecticide by dehydrating insects like ants, fleas, and bedbugs.

Health & Beauty: Used as a detox supplement, it may support digestion and improve skin and hair health.

Skincare: DE is an exfoliant and is sometimes included in face masks and scrubs.

Agriculture: Used as a soil conditioner and natural pest repellent.

Filtration: Helps purify water and other liquids.


Precautions:

Inhalation of DE dust can be harmful to the lungs.

Industrial-grade DE should not be ingested.

Always ensure DE is food-grade when used for personal care or consumption.

Buyer questions

Frequently asked by buyers

Common questions B2B buyers ask before sourcing Diatomaceous Earth. Answers compiled from verified sellers' commercial terms and platform data.

Q: What is the primary difference between Food Grade and Industrial Grade Diatomaceous Earth?
A: The main difference is that Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth is safe for human and animal consumption and is used in dietary supplements and natural pest control, while Industrial Grade is used primarily for filtration and other industrial applications and is not safe for ingestion.
Q: How does Diatomaceous Earth work in pest control?
A: Diatomaceous Earth acts as a natural insecticide by dehydrating pests. When insects come into contact with DE, the sharp edges of the particles damage their exoskeletons, leading to dehydration and ultimately death.
Q: Can Diatomaceous Earth be used in skincare products?
A: Yes, Diatomaceous Earth is an excellent exfoliant and is commonly included in face masks and scrubs to improve skin texture and remove dead skin cells.
Q: What precautions should I take when using Diatomaceous Earth?
A: It's essential to avoid inhaling the dust from DE as it can be harmful to the lungs. Always opt for Food Grade DE for personal care and consumption, and ensure to use Industrial Grade DE only for its intended applications.
