BIOS Nutrients Diatomaceous Earth is a natural mineral-based powder used for insect control in plant care and growing environments. Made from fossilized diatoms, this fine silica dust works mechanically by damaging the protective outer layer of crawling insects, helping reduce pest populations without the use of chemical pesticides.
Diatomaceous earth is commonly used to manage fungus gnats, ants, and other crawling insects in potting soil and around plant containers. When applied to dry surfaces, it remains effective as long as it stays dry. It can be lightly dusted on top of potting mix or around areas where insect activity is present.
This product is suitable for indoor plants, greenhouse use, and outdoor growing spaces. For best results, apply in dry conditions and reapply after watering or exposure to moisture. Avoid inhaling dust during application and follow all label directions for safe handling.
