Kill Bed Bugs in no time! Virtually any insects as well.,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Diatomaceous Earth, Food Grade 50 lb. Bag
If your room is infested by Bed Bugs and are looking for solution, this is all the thing you need. It works by scratching off bed bugs' exoskeleton so they get dehydrated and die. I tried it on bed bugs as well as roaches, they both die, but roaches die after few days while bed bugs die after merely a few hours!
This is how I test it to make sure it actually work. Most will just throw them in a jar of DE (diatomaceous earth) and watch them die, I think that's too much and not true in real application. Because insects will most likely walk over the DE and hide, so they actually won't expose to the DE continuously. I caught a lively adult bed bug and put it on a piece of paper, put a circle of DE around it. So when it finally walked over the circle I caught it immediately and put it in an open jar. It walked fast at the first few minutes, and after like 10 minutes it just didn't walk at all unless I kicked his butt. After a few hours I know it was dead because it was so dry that one of its leg came off after shaking the jar very gently! Avoid paying thousands of dollars for pest control, most of them do not know how to control bed bugs actually. They never take it seriously to really find all the hiding place because it is not their house. They don't give a darn. Shipping is expensive but the total would be just $60 comparing to hundreds or thousands of dollor you pay for pest control. The reason I gave 4 stars is while DE really works, it does make your room messy. If you can stand the white powder all over the place then this is the perfect solution for killing bed bugs. Cleaning up the powder is actually pretty easy though. Just vacuum them up. Don't worry about leaving any residue, since they are natural and non-chemical. I do recommend leaving DE in crevices, corner, around baseboard and under your bed. Put many of them everywhere in the kitchen if roaches is a problem to you. Leave them and they work for you quietly and efficiently. Sorry for this unorganized review. I rarely write review for most products I bought, but for this thing I just couldn't help. Because it does works!

Works but not over night!,
By
This review is from: Diatomaceous Earth, Food Grade 50 lb. Bag
This product does indeed work but if you are looking for a one day fix move on....it works in 2-4 days depending on conditions etc.Not for those seeking that "Quick Fix" but for those that want a NATURAL approach and don't want to use chemicals with all the negative effects!

DE works, just differently,
By
This review is from: Diatomaceous Earth, Food Grade 50 lb. Bag
Diatomaceous earth works by abrading the exoskeleton of insects and by sticking in the creases of their skeletons. Finally, after exposure, the insect is dehydrated (leaks out) and dies.
It doesn't work fast, but it does work completely.
