Safe and effective when used as an organic wormer and treatment for internal parasites. EPA approved as a food additive. Directions for use: Mix with food once a day: Kittens: 1/2 teaspoon Puppies: 1/2 -1 teaspoon Dogs under 35lbs: 1 teaspoon Dogs 35-50lbs: 2 teaspoons Dogs over 50lbs: 1 tablespoon Dogs over 100lbs: 2 tablespoons Note: Food grade diatomaceous earth eliminates hookworms, whipworms, pinworms and roundworms within one week of being fed daily. Safe to double the daily recommended dose if your pet has fleas, or when worming. Remember, for the DE to be effective, it has to come into contact with the worm/parasite/pest to kill it. Make the addition of DE to your pet"s food a daily habit and try not to miss days during the worming treatment period. For best results, it is better to feed a little more than the recommended dose rather than less. For puppies and kittens who are eating on their own, add the DE into a small amount of milk or yogurt to make it palatable....
