02ORIGIN

Fossilised Diatom Skeletons

This powder is derived from the skeletons of fossilised diatoms, a type of hard-shelled algae. Sourced from an organic certified supplier in Australia, it represents a naturally occurring rock transformed into a usable form. The material is heat-treated via sunshine or UV light, a process that sterilises the powder without altering its fundamental structure.

03TEXTURE

Soft As Talc Powder

With a particle size of approximately 20 microns, the powder achieves a consistency comparable to talc. It is visually distinct as an off-white, odourless substance that feels smooth to the touch. This fineness allows it to disperse readily in water or juice, making it versatile for various applications within the home or garden.

04FUNCTION

Mechanical Pest Control

The powder works mechanically rather than chemically. It cuts through exoskeletons, absorbing bodily fluids to manage insects, pests, and parasites. Suitable for consuming, feeding, or dusting pets, it offers a physical method of control that is free from added chemicals, relying instead on the structural properties of the ground shells.

What Is Fresh Water Diatomaceous Earth?

It is a naturally occurring rock made from the skeletons of fossilised diatoms, a type of hard shelled algae. When ground into a fine powder, diatomaceous earth works mechanically to destroy a wide range of pests, insects, parasites and pathogens by cutting through the exoskeleton, absorbing bodily fluids and causing them to die. Food grade diatomaceous earth is chemical free and non toxic.
