SeaLife Diatomaceous Earth

Composed primarily of silica (SiO2), diatomaceous earth is rich in the remains of ancient diatoms. These diatoms were once aquatic organisms that formed large deposits after they died and settled at the bottom of lakes and seas.

Absorbent Properties:

Diatomaceous earth has incredible absorptive properties, making it useful for absorbing moisture, controlling odours, and as a natural pesticide.

Types of Diatomaceous Earth:

·         Food grade: Safe for humans and animals, often used for pest control, detox, and even as a supplement.

·        Non-food grade: This type, also called filter grade, is used in industrial applications (e.g., filtration, pool filters).

Uses:

·        Pest Control: It's commonly used to control pests like fleas, ants, bed bugs, and other insects. The powder works by damaging the exoskeleton of insects, causing them to dehydrate.

·        Garden & Soil Health: It can be used to improve soil aeration and help control pests naturally.

·        Health & Wellness: Some people take food-grade diatomaceous earth as a supplement, believing it supports healthy hair, skin, nails, and detoxification.
