Safer Crawling Insect Killer is a four-pound, ready-to-use diatomaceous-earth dust for label-listed ants, cockroaches, earwigs, silverfish, fleas, bed bugs, and other crawling insects. The dry mineral particles act through physical contact, so a light, even layer in insect travel areas works better than heavy piles that pests can avoid. This pesticide product is not food-grade diatomaceous earth.
Apply only to sites named on the label, such as cracks, crevices, baseboards, beneath appliances, attics, basements, or permitted outdoor areas. Keep the dust dry and reapply outdoor treatments after rain or irrigation when the label directs. Avoid breathing airborne particles; use careful placement and allow disturbed dust to settle before people or animals reenter the area. Do not apply directly to animals, food, food-contact surfaces, or edible plant portions unless the label expressly allows the site. Diatomaceous earth can also affect beneficial insects that contact treated dust, so use targeted placements instead of broad, unnecessary coverage.
