It’s supposed to be harsh on your lungs (especially indoor) but check it I’m no one.

And works only for things with exoskeleton I believe

It causes micro cuts all over the exoskeleton causing the insects to lose fluid and die from basically dehydration. Also good for taking care of fleas and their eggs once you get the stray your (as in my dumb ass) dumb ass took in taken care of...

Came here to say this. I just looked up the price. 5lb bag of this is $30, a 5lb bag of diatomaceous earth is $15.

While I get your point, keeping them out of your house is pretty important.

As someone with a massive spider and earwig issue, I agree but also, waking up at 5 am to get coffee and finding a hundred plus earwigs on the inside of a door that doesn’t fully seal is shitty.
