Product Overview
MotherEarth D is a broad spectrum desiccant dust with 100% high purity freshwater diatomaceous earth for long lasting control of crawling insects. Diatoms are harmless against humans and pets and are completely natural. MotherEarth D is made of the highest-quality diatomaceous earth, lasts virtually forever if left untouched and provides long-lasting control of insect pests.
Mother Earth D should not be the only product used in the fight against bed bugs as it does not kill quick enough. For best results, use a contact kill such as Sterifab or Bedlam in addition to the dust product.

Details
Active Ingredient Silicon dioxide 88.25% Target pests Ants, Cockroaches, Earwigs, Fleas, Mites, Spiders, Bed Bugs and almost all other crawling insects For use in Cracks, Crevices and Voids where insects travel Application Duster Pet safe Yes, if used as directed on label NOT FOR SALE TO Shipping Weight 0.68 lbs Manufacturer Whitmire Micro-Gen EPA Registration 499-509 MotherEarth D consists of 100% diatomaceous earth which is the fossilized skeletal remains of single celled phytoplankton commonly referred to as diatoms. It works by dehydrating insects through a desiccating action. The absorptive properties of the fossilized cell-walls easily remove the cuticle's outer waxy layer. This results in the loss of an insect's ability to maintain proper fluid levels-ultimately leading to death. Unlike boric acid dusts that work best when ingested, MotherEarth D only requires contact with the insect to be effective.
Mother Earth D Features:
- Highly absorptive desiccant dust
- 100% high purity freshwater diatomaceous earth
- Long lasting dust provides continuous protection from pests
- Easily covers cracks, crevices, and voids
- Mined straight from Mother Earth for your sensitive accounts

39 Questions & Answers
Helpful Q&A'sQWhat exactly is the difference between insect and food grade DE?I've gone over your labels and stuff and it seems to have a lot of confusing information. I've only heard references to "food grade" and "Pool" DE. Can you provide information describing how and why some DE gets labeled as Insecticide Grade rather than Food Grade. The Pool Grade stuff I'm told has been specially processed which makes it toxic, is this product similarly processed to the pool grade?AThe insecticide grade DE is manufactured using a special process and is usually from different mines than food or other grades of diatomaceous earth. Food grade DE will come from specific mines that …
Read Full Answer »The insecticide grade DE is manufactured using a special process and is usually from different mines than food or other grades of diatomaceous earth. Food grade DE will come from specific mines that do not contain elements such as arsenic and quartz, so it is essentially the "purest" form of diatomaceous earth. Some insecticide DE products will be from food grade mines, although you should not assume this is true with all DE products.QIf Mother Earth D gets wet, will it retain its properties after it dries out?In other words, if it is applied into a baseboard void and that area gets wet but then dries out, does the Mother Earth D then return to its original powder form and retain its properties of breaking down the bugs cuticle composition? If left undisturbed, how long will Mother Earth D last? Also, is there an aerosol version of Mother Earth?AYes, once Mother Earth dust dries it will be effective again.

Read Full Answer »Mother Earth D is an all natural product so there is no poison or insecticide present. It is one of the safest products we sell. There is no certain amount because this product is meant to be applied from a hand duster in cracks and cravices, under appliances, wall voids, etc. You should fill a hand duster half way with the MotherEarth D and apply 1 to 2 puffs in the crack/crevice or under appliances or any other areas you apply the product.
