Tip of the Week – Diatomaceous Earth – July 18/22

2 words - Diatomaceous Earth

This stuff is simply amazing.  It can be used for so many things and has so many benefits:

  • People
  • Pets
  • Livestock
  • Pest Control
  • Bed Bugs
  • And more

I put this in my smoothie every day, my cat’s food every time he gets fed (wet food), and I use it on my plants when they get bugs or pests.

There are so many things I could say but I would rather you take a few moments to click on the links below.

Every household should have this.

Diatomaceous earth is a non-toxic way to control pests in the garden. It is effective against all insect pests that crawl on plants because contact with the powder is extremely dehydrating.

After watering the plants, (I use the Epsom salt mixture first instead of just water) then I dust them (or sprinkle them) with the Diatomaceous earth. This will help the powder stick to plant surfaces. Honestly, the next day I check the plant, most if not all of the bugs are gone – awesome stuff!

After living half a century, I have had my ups and downs. I have lived, I have learned, I have loved and I have lost. Finally, after many years, twists, turns, disappointments and discoveries, my life started to change direction. Once that direction took root and I was establishing a new lifestyle, I was ready to teach others how to apply what had taken years to figure out - but I wanted to make it a shorter, easier, hopefully more enjoyable journey.
