This is wonderful stuff. Just make sure you use some common sense safety precautions when using it. Especially a face mask, so it doesn't get in your lungs. It's great to get rid of many types of insect pests.

I buy the FOOD GRADE and then it can be used as a wormer for dogs and internal cleanser for people. I sprinkle some on their food and stir a spoonful into my coffee. There are guidlelines for the weight of the animal. My horse gets it in her food too. :)
