Diatomaceous earth will kill insects, it actually cut them open, it works well as a dust around the home, BUT putting it on the dog will dry out his/her skin. We used it for a time till the dogs started getting “dandruff”., on closer examination we could see that their skin was not healthy. Stopped the dusting and the skin healed right up.
Had a hard time spelling “diatomaceous” right.
