http://naturalpesticides.blogspot.com/ Pick a pest and you can usually find a natural pesticide control for it - one that won't poison you, your kids or your pets.

Natural pest control is less expensive than buying and applying pesticides, and it's safer for your garden, natural wildlife and the environment. Each year North American homes use approximately 136 million pounds of pesticides on lawns and gardens, and in the home. In fact, homeowners use about three times the amount of pesticides as farmers. Most wildlife pest poisonings, and most surface water contamination from pesticides, come from single-family homes.

  • I don't really know what he's talking about, but he sure does sound sexy..

  • DE takes hours to days and maybe even weeks to work. Don't expect immediate results from using it.

  • DE Rocks! I have had stellar results using it against roaches and water bugs in and around the house. It also works great on feather mites on chickens. Don't put big piles of it around, just a tad in the palm of your hand and blow it into the area you want. It seems to have stopped the termites that were munching on my house also...

  • I put the dry DE powder on a tick and it didn't do a thing.

  • I would recommend Orange Guard for another natural alternative, its a spray!

  • Diatomaceous Earth

    Homemade remedies are inexpensive and, best of all, you know what is going into your garden. Many homemade sprays have been used with good results to control harmful insects. They usually involve noxious (but non-toxic) ingredients such as garlic, cayenne, stinging nettles or horsetail which are diluted in water and blended to be sprayed on the plants. Here is one natural pesticide that I like.

  • I just got me some D.E., so good info on the website thanks!
