Application

This product is intended for use in farming environments, especially in poultry facilities where it helps limit the presence of poultry mites and other troublesome insects. It can also be used wherever surface drying and improved conditions are important. It works well in locations such as poultry houses, nests, feed lines, stables, barns, or feed storage rooms. Its large capacity is convenient for securing larger areas.

Principle of Operation

Diatomaceous earth acts physically, not chemically. The fine particles damage the protective layer of insects, leading to their dehydration and death. This mode of action is effective with regular use and does not rely on biocidal substances. The product can be applied on spots or larger surfaces, depending on the facility's needs.

In Practice

For larger facilities, a 5 kg bucket allows ongoing treatments without frequent restocking. The fine form makes it easier to spread the product in places where moisture accumulates or parasites appear. For even application, a hand sprayer, 500 ml, Cit (SKU 299761) can be useful, facilitating precise application of the powder. This working method helps maintain order in the building and enables larger areas to be covered in less time.
