I have videos of grain mites doing the backstroke and laughing in DE. It hasn't even been effective in feed for me.The only actual use I have found where it's effective is in buggy feed. Aart mentioned that here on BYC and uses it for that.
*if anyone could tag her, that'd be great
I would, but they're on my computer and I can't access them. I do still have the DE though. If I ever have another issue, I'll make sure to film their shenanigans!Why would you want to do that?
Please post vids.
It worked here, but can take a lot of it and few days....
.....not like spraying them with Raid where they drop dead on contact.
That's good to know! Thank you So far I've been able to return and replace buggy feed. I don't think I'll ever use DE again since I have asthma anyway. I had a bucket with some poultry lice in it and DE did absolutely nothing to them. Sounds like our experiments were similarI have videos of grain mites doing the backstroke and laughing in DE.
