Harris Diatomaceous Earth Crawling Insect Killer, 8oz for Roaches, Fleas, Ants, Bed Bugs, and More…

I was at my wit’s end battling an invasion of ants and the occasional cockroach when I decided to try something different. That’s when I came across this product and let me tell you, it’s been a game-changer.The product comes in a simple yet effective 8oz puffer bottle that makes application incredibly easy, especially in hard-to-reach corners, baseboards, behind appliances, and inside cracks where pests love to hide. The nozzle lets you control the flow without creating a mess, which I really appreciated.Upon unboxing, I noticed how lightweight the bottle is and how fine the powder feels—almost like flour. There's no strong odor or fumes, which makes it perfect for indoor use around pets and kids, as long as you follow the instructions. It's oddly satisfying to know that such a gentle-looking product can be so deadly to bugs.The build quality of the bottle is solid and the applicator works better than I expected. I’ve used similar powders in the past that clumped or clogged during use, but this one dispenses smoothly and consistently. It’s easy to store and seals well to prevent moisture from affecting the powder.Performance-wise, the results weren’t immediate, but after about 24 to 48 hours, I started seeing fewer ants around the kitchen and no more unwelcome roach appearances at night. I applied a light dusting along entry points and under appliances, and after a few days, it was clear that the colony had gotten the message. I also used it along the base of the bed frame and behind furniture as a precaution for bed bugs, and so far, no issues.Pros:Easy-to-use puffer bottle allows for precise applicationCompletely natural and chemical-free, safe to use around pets and kidsOdorless and non-staining, perfect for indoor useEffectively kills ants, roaches, fleas, and more with lasting results

I’ve used DE before, but if you have a severe infestation, you will not be able to use DE alone to get it under control.I used DE and Capstar in the remote past when I adopted two rescue cats that came to me with fleas and I caught it before it became a serious infestation. It is safe and effective albeit messy, but it is much better to vacuum, dust, and do extra laundry for a few weeks than to allow the fleas to go through their lifecycle, because once you are seeing multiple live fleas, they are laying eggs faster than you are keeping up.Don’t forget to empty and clean your vacuum, preferably outside and in a trash bag you can seal and place immediately in your trash bin away from your home, every time you vacuum when using DE or you will end up with flea eggs living in your vacuum cleaner and you might get rid of the first round, but if you end up missing a few eggs - a few months later you will be back dealing with fleas again.For more significant infestations, you will need every poison spray that has HGR in it (there are two chemicals that work together to actually kill the fleas in every part of their lifecycle), DE, and every effective type of flea treatments available: sprays, shampoos, and medications, etc that you can find to get it under control.

Been buying this product for years. Have it on subscription deliveries because it’s so convenient in the dusting container. This container allows for a smaller direct application so I don’t need a face mask when using it. Other bags and containers create more dust when scooping. It works in the garden, on my animals and in their beds. In the chicken coop. Basically Everywhere to keep bugs away.

Works well! I used it to line my sister's and nephews place to prevent bugs a few months back and it's held up to this day! No bugs yet!!

This stuff works. German roach invasion in a 1.1k apartment. Not crazy but I know the old saying if you see one that’s a 1,000 you don’t see. I followed instructions put it along baseboards and little hotspots (under the fridge, inside and around trashcan (etc). After a week I haven’t seen a single bug. Definitely worth it.

Have not seen any good results from this bug killer. We have even tried mixing it with boric acid, as usually mixing them together will have a more powerful affect, but the bugs don't seem to be drawn to this, won't even walk through it.

I have read over many reviews and wanted to clear a few things up about this product. A recurring issue seems to be that the insects are still active and walking through or by the diatomaceous earth without reacting or dying instantly. That is not how this product is intended to work. The diatomaceous earth will stick to the insects body/legs, and that insect will take it back to the colony/nest. Over the course of 48-72 hours, the powder begins to dehydrate the insects, which in turn kills them. It is not instant, like raid would be.The other thing I’ve seen most mentioned is that the bottle is not full. The bottle states that it contains 8 ounces of diatomaceous earth. After shipping & settling of the powder, it can appear to be more full or less full than the next bottle. It contains 8 ounces per bottle regardless of how it ’looks’.As to the effectiveness, this product cannot be beat!! We have been battling carpenter ants and earwigs for weeks now, and we do every single spring, summer and into fall. The house we rent is one-story, that sits on a concrete slab, in an area that was once swamp land. I put this powder around the entire exterior, and on the interior problem spots, on Saturday, June 8, 2024 and have already noticed a big reduction in the number of pests we are seeing. While sitting on the back porch, I watched insects running AWAY from the powder; in turn running away from my house. We have tried using HomeDefense and other chemicals that are dangerous to our pets. With diatomaceous earth, we no longer have to worry about boarding them for 3 days. I will never stop using this product!

Not sure how this stuff works but it’s the real deal. Eliminated the roach problem from neighbors yard immediately
