Hi Luella,

I just told Nellie and Pat about this Diatomaceous Earth. It is wonderful for killing bugs of all kind. Especially fleas. You can put it all though your house and it will not harm anything other then bugs. I use it on my veggies for bugs too, plus it is good for the soil.

When I go my 9 weeks old kittens, they had a few fleas. I put DE on them and by, by fleas.
