Has anyone used diamethaneous earth to help assure no pests are in sand/dirt in stalls. I have heard it kills ants, bugs, and ect. and it is harmless to animals. Will it help get rid of any worms in the soil also? TIA for any feedback.
As my veterinarian always advices clients. Though it may not HURT anything it probably is NOT (and as the proof of multiple patients coming in almost daily still covered in fleas, full of intestinal parasites, add whatever cure claimed here not fillfilled by JUST using DE) it is not recommended as a sole cure all for (insert whatever you want to use DE for here).

I use human grade DE in my feed and tack rooms for fire ants. Works like a charm. I can dust it that morning and they’ll all be gone by that afternoon.
