All will be well, and that will be well is well.
I have bentonite in my glaze mixing supplies (for pottery). Because of the small particle size of all glaze components, I use a respirator to avoid silicosis. If pure, I don't think it's toxic (but all these things are mined minerals and will contain at least traces of other components). I wouldn't use it, except to seal a pond or thicken a glaze.I don't use DE, I use something similar called food grade benonite clay, and dust my chickens with it as well as dust their flooring areas
