Yeah, there's that too. And think of the animal, they are nearer the ground and clean themselves by licking. While diatomaceous earth is good for worms and parasites, they are still breathing it. With their nose in their fur that has picked up DE while being on the floor.

BTW, that was another stupid and dangerous fad in the 80's. We were bombarded with solicitations and advertising to 'treat' the home for only $99. I actually bit on that once. I had mostly wood floors and before I knew it the place was dusted to a mess. They should have known better even if I didn't. I expected the bedroom carpets to be done and that only.

I almost beat the guy up I was so angry. He knew he wasn't coming back to my street.
