## Overview

Garden Safe Crawling Insect Killer uses horticultural-grade diatomaceous earth to physically eliminate crawling insects by dehydrating their exoskeletons. This 4-pound powder is ideal for organic gardening, safe for kids and pets, and effective against ants, roaches, beetles, fleas, and more. It works by contact, is weather-resistant, and provides a chemical-free, eco-friendly pest control solution for outdoor use.

## Description

Use Garden Safe Brand Diatomaceous Earth Crawling Insect Killer for organic gardening. The formula kills listed insects by contact, including German cockroaches, ants,* beetles,** fleas, mealybugs and other listed crawling insects. Use outdoors on plants and on the soil around plants to kill listed crawling insects by contact. When dusted on insects, the fine/powdery granules coat their exoskeletons and absorb oils and fats, causing them to dry out and die. The granules also cut into insects’ outer skeletons, causing them to dehydrate further. Always read the entire label and follow all directions and precautions. *Except carpenter, harvester and pharaoh ants **Except wood-destroying beetles.

Review: Effective against ants and other soft bodied insects. *Use caution with pollinators. - Usually the front yard is treated with insecticide, which is what I believe relocated or “herded” the ants into the vegetable enclosure. Who knew? It was recommended that I use Diatomaceous Earth as a perimeter barrier and also apply directly to any ant nests that have started to come up through the barrier cloth in the enclosure. I’ve never used Diatomaceous earth (DE) before, so at least now I’ll know first hand what all the hype is about and if it works. By the way, there are different “flavors” of DE and some are not for human consumption or even your yard. This one is of horticulture grade for both yard and bugs. It’s a super fine powder (like baby powder, but not as heavy as flour) that is off white in color. The powder is made up of crushed, sharp fossilized remains of algae and diatoms making it a chemical and synthetic free pest treatment. For “soft bodied” insects (like ants), any contact with the powder is akin to walking on broken glass that kills them. The DE comes in a decent size bag at a whopping 4 pounds that’s guaranteed to cover a lot of real estate and can be liberally applied to your yard without worry of running out. It does not smell, and it does not stain. Applicator is not included. For the applicator, I usually keep on hand a couple of old Kinder’s BBQ Sauce bottles. They are easy to clean, labels peel straight off without resistance, they have a wide neck for filling and is easy to squeeze as a sprayer. -You could also use a cheap turkey baster. For my problem, I simply sprinkled DE around the areas where the ants live and around each vegetable pot to take care of earwigs, beetles, tomato hornworms and army worms. As far as ants hills go, this is not an instant kill or kill on contact solution like Raid, so be patient. It took a little over 2 days and another dose of DE to completely rid the enclosure of ants. They are now permanently gone and have not moved back into the front yard. By the way, watch out for the wind when applying. Areas with flowering plants that usually have pollinators or attract bees, lady bugs, butterflies etc. need to be avoided as DE does not differentiate between good beneficial insects and bad ones. Since they are also soft bodied, this stuff will kill them. Just saying. Hopefully the ants have moved on to the back lot & I’m fine with that. This has worked for my ant and earwig problem. As for the tomato horn worm and army worms, they still take less time to identify and kill manually. There’s a lot of bang for your buck with this bag, and as gardeners we should be thankful for both the quantity and price. It’s a fantastic deal when compared to other brands. P.S. I did read somewhere that for hard to reach spots on plants, you can actually mix 4 tablespoons DE to 1 gallon of water to spray directly on your leaves. Anyway, as a pest control treatment, this is very effective for ants and earwigs. I can’t speak on other bugs yet since not a problem at this time. The volume and quality for the price point is a steal! Go for it 5 stars!
Review: Naturally Powerful & Effective—A Must-Have for Pest Control! - I've been battling ants and roaches creeping into our kitchen and garage, and the Garden Safe Crawling Insect Killer has been a game changer. This diatomaceous earth (DE) formula delivers reliable pest control without harsh chemicals, a great relief for a home with kids and pets. 🛡️ What I Love: Natural and non‑toxic: Made of food-grade diatomaceous earth, it’s safe around the house yet deadly to pests by dehydrating them on contact. Versatile use: I sprinkled it along baseboards indoors and around garden beds and patio cracks outside—completely eliminated the ant trails and roach sightings. Mess-free packaging: Comes in a handy shaker-style tub—no clumps, no fuss. Just a light dusting goes a long way. Long-lasting action: The powder stays effective even after light rain outdoors and didn’t need frequent reapplications. ⚠️ What to Keep in Mind: Use a mask: The powder is fine and dusty—wear a face mask or apply it gently to minimize airborne particles. Keep dry for best results: DE works only when dry, so if an area gets wet, reapply after it dries. ✅ Final Thoughts For anyone looking for a safe, economical, and eco-friendly solution to control crawling insects, this product is a standout. One 4-pound tub has lasted me through multiple seasons and will probably last through the next. It does exactly what it claims—no chemicals, no fuss, just quiet, effective pest protection. Highly recommend this for campers, gardeners, renters—you name it!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does anyone know what the other 15% of ingredients is/are? Is that legal to only tell us what 85% is and not tell us the rest?**
A: Thank you for your question. The product that we sell is 100% diatomaceous earth, which contains 85% silicon dioxide (which is the “active ingredient”) and 15% other minerals.  The percentage breakdown is simply an EPA regulation that we comply with, but our diatomaceous product is natural, placed in the bag as is from where it is mined.

**Q: What are the ingredients?**
A: Safety Data Sheet  Garden Safe Brand Crawling Insect Killer Containing Diatomaceous Earth
Chemical Name CAS# Weight Percent Silicon dioxide 7631-86-9 85.0% 
 Note: Ingredients not identified are proprietary or non-hazardous.  Values are not product specifications.

**Q: Does it work for scorpions?**
A: Of course

**Q: Has it been flux calcined?**
A: The bloody flux killed, not calcinated, many of the English Invaders when they stole the Powhatan Land. It is a pity the Bloody Flux did not kill or calcinated all of the English Invaders!
