They don't always do so, if it's used properly (lightly and where you won't come in contact with it). For this reason, it often isn't used as a sole treatment option. You may also find our FAQ on DE helpful: http://bedbugger.com/2007/03/30/faqde/ Please come to the forums if you would like to discuss this further: http://bedbugger.com/forum/ lisa ovel,

I didn't even know there was a difference - I put this crap in my house. Every garden store/ nursery I've called acted like I was a nut for asking about DE. One garden store person told me to ask a pool store - nice! I told her I was planning to use it as a pesticide. Maybe I should shove a fist-full of this garbage up HER nose. (I think the bug bites are making me into an angry person) :( stupid bugs. All I can find is pool grade DE. I didn’t even know there was a difference – I put this crap in my house.

I will ask Jackson again if he will give me the PCO's email. It really perked my curiosity when he referred to Demand as a single compound, and that the stuff he uses is illegal in the States, and not even up for consideration ! I havent heard back from Jackson. I will do my best to get this info..and of course unless we had the name of his company the info he gives cannot really be taken for fact. Anyone online can say they represent a company and give info.,It would be more legitimate if I could put in a phone call to the company and speak directly with them/and or him, if he would give out the name and number.
