Schaefer Diatomaceous Earth Insect Killer
Best natural pest solution for eco-conscious homeowners and organic gardeners.
This is the rare pest control solution that relies on physics rather than chemistry to get the job done. By dehydrating insects on contact, it eliminates the risk of resistance, though you will have to reapply it whenever things get wet. It’s a messy, manual process, but it’s arguably the safest way to reclaim your home.
