Re: DE

Hi Betsy....yes I did find a source (Nitron). It's much cheaper to order
it online than to get it at the places you referenced. I bought 25 lb
worth for $25.00. It is the "food grade" not the gardening type. It's
very, very fine...like talcom powder. I used it on all of my critters
again this week. The fleas and ticks will be BAD this year as our winter
was very mild. Thanks for thinking of me though!!! Hugs.

Hi Jesse,
I am way behind in my e-mails. Did you ever find a source for
Diatomaceous Earth? I carry it in my garden center. I have a squeeze
bottle(dust) by Safer/Reuter, 2# bags by Natural Guard/Fertilome, and it is
chunks like rocks in Fertilone Aquatis PLant Potting Soil.

I checked the Fertilome website and
