A friend once told me that a light dusting of DE makes a good organic flea
and tick repellent for dogs because the skeletal remains are harmful to
fleas/ticks. Has anyone here ever heard that before?
I would think it would be too slow to be effective. There are silica gel
(often confused with DE) dusts that have powdered pyrethrin that are labeled
for use on kittens/puppies 6 weeks and older.
