Product Details

Diatomaceous Earth Insecticide is a dual-bug and slug killer and is also effective in killing aphids, cutworms, root maggots, cabbageworms, earwigs, fleas, silverfish, and more. Insects cannot develop resistance. The fine dust cloud sticks to wet plant surfaces and infiltrates insect hiding places. Diatomaceous Earth Insecticide is derived from the finely milled fossilized remains of prehistoric freshwater diatoms. The fine dust is "squirted" through the narrow, pointed applicator cap into specific areas such as down into cracks, or directly into insect nests. It is not intended as pest control for broadcast in the garden. This product is 26cm tall and has a diameter of 8cm.

Quick Facts:

    • Chemical-free insecticide effective against bugs and slugs
    • Also effective against aphids, cutworms, root maggots, cabbageworms, earwigs, fleas, silverfish, and more.

How To Grow Diatomaceous Earth - 200g

Growing

This blend of Micro-clover and Tall Fescue seeds takes a two-pronged approach at defeating the chafer beetle. This blend is meant for use with new, bare topsoil, and not for over-seeding existing lawns. Keep the newly seeded area well-watered as the seedlings take root. Onceestablished, this lawn will require regular maintenance, but it will stay greener for longer in the summer, and it will stand up to foot (and pet) traffic in areas of full sun to partial shade. Clover may go dormant over winter, and may appear to die back, so the fescue in this blend will keep lawns looking healthy and vibrant. This blendcontains95% Tall Fescue and 5% Micro-clover.

Starting

Spread the seed on bare soil, with no turf present, at a rate of 3.6kg (8 lb) per 1000 square feet. Seeding over existing thatch is rarely successful. Because lawn spaces tend to be large, we recommend erring on the side of caution.It’sa good ideato withhold 15-20% of seeds for filling in any bald areas later. All new plantings should be kept damp until the plants areestablished.

Timing

Sow in the period two weeks before, to eight weeks after, the last frost date. Or, in areas with mild winters, sow in early autumn, approximately eight weeks before the first frost date.
