Uncalcined diatomaceous earth comes from marine and lake sediments over 100 million years old and contains fossil skeletons of diatoms, a microscopic algae.

 

The tiny exoskeletons of diatoms are extremely porous. They absorb fats and liquids like a sponge. Diatomaceous earth has excellent filtering properties and is inert. These properties and the microscopic glass-like sharp edges make diatomaceous earth a popular natural biocide as an environmentally friendly and non-toxic pest control agent.

Diatomaceous earth is an effective alternative to chemical agents to fight against parasites (fleas, mites, etc.). It also has many uses in the ornamental garden, the vegetable garden or for potted plants.
