Another use for diamotaceous earth is to kill intestinal worms. I give it to my cats mixed in their food, cured one fellow of a big ole worm that was making him very sick. Took about two weeks of giving him the DE. Now I mix it in their food most every day. It can be eaten by people as well, for worms. The place I learned it from - http://www.wolfcreekranch.net/ - is an animal rescue place, and the people who work there take DE since they’re working around and cleaning up animals all the time, sick and well.

I took it for a few months “just in case” when we purchased it. No change in my health, so I must not have had any worms!

It can also be rubbed into the animals’ coats to kill fleas, my cats have no fleas now, and also put in their bedding. It’s not good to breathe the dust, that’s all.

I had a friend sprinkle DE into her bluebird house nests because the blowflies were killing the hatchlings and she said she had a much better survival rate.

I have forgotten all the uses that I had for it, but animal feed and even bug control I know that I used it for.

I haven’t taken it myself.
