Diatomaceous Earth mode of action for insect & parasite control is strictly mechanical. The microscopically sharp edges contact the insect or parasite piercing their protective coating, dehydrate & die. Fly & other larvae are affected in the same way. DE is an excellent & totally natural control, with no indicating of mechanical or damage to internal tissue. It can be used as a dust for fleas, lice & other external pests by rubbing into the coat of the animal. Internal, external parasite & insect pest control will result in improvement in health, appearance, & behavior, as well as assimilation of feed, with improved weight gain & lowered feed costs.

Chemical anthelmentics currently prescribed by veterinarians have a number of drawbacks such as; cost, animal toxicity, milk & meat contamination, & parasitic chemical resistance. Waiting until an animal shows signs of parasitic infection, farmers using chemical treatments cannot avert the stress, weight loss & lethargy that result. Shortly after the initial chemical dosage, parasites begin immediate re-infestation. Finally acknowledging this phenomenon, chemical companies now prescribe rotating their wormers or feeding chemical wormers daily. Do you really want chemicals cruising through your animal’s bloodstream at every possible moment?
While one scoop of all natural DE36 added in the feed or loose minerals provides the advantages of safety, convenience & prevention at a reasonable cost.

Beginning a daily de-worming program for your horses has never been easier! Simply top dress or mix 1 scoop (provided in package) with your horse’s grain ration 1X per day.

Amount based on horses up to 1000 lbs. While larger horses may need a bit more. Giving too much DE36 will not give you more benefit, though, so follow recommended dosages to keep your costs down. DE should not exceed (by the FDA) any more than 2% of gross weight of feed.
