Looking for food grade DE in PNW, or Canada?

[Autumn Mama]

I am in the Fraser Valley, just outside of Vancouver, BC, and can only find the DE mixed with the clay that starts with the letter "M" It's a long word...

I don't want that if I can get the food grade DE.

I want to mix it in the feed, dust them with it for parasite control, not worry about them eating it in the run or coop etc.

Any leads as to where I can get it???

Thanks in advance!

Acre of Blessings had some listed in the everything else BST section, you could do a search for her.

Hi Autumn Mama. Try these people. I got my DE from the local feed store. They sell it as a preventative for scours in calves. Should be the same stuff though.

A distance from your location but they have the food grade DE.

Sure Crop Feeds in Grindrod (before Vernon).
Here's their toll free number
1-800-228-5491
$9.40 per 20 kg bag.

Not sure if they would ship or not. Worth a call perhaps. They might even be able to put you on to someone closer to you....?

Good luck in your search.

Let us know how it goes - I am in Vancouver and still working on finding the best local sources for supplies.
