I have just discovered that I have fleas. I have heard that diatomaceous earth is the best way to treat for them. My husband is concerned about breathing it in since we have been instructed to dust it on all of our floors and leave it there for days. The debate has been made that DE will not continue to work if it's moist so breathing it in is not harmful. Seems pretty straight forward, and makes logical sense. My question is if it looses the ability to work when it's moist why am I reading (in the same articles that mention this) that people eat it to kill parasites and feed it to their animals to kill parasites. Does anyone know how this makes any sense?
Does anyone know of a website with good instructions on using it for flea infestation?
Thank you in advance for your thoughts.
