Diatomaceous Earth Flea & Tick Control..
Safe Diatomaceous Earth Pet Wormer,
Livestock Wormer.
Pets: Our best friends come in all shapes and sizes. Protect them with Diatomaceous Earth. When lightly rubbed into their coats & dusted in their area, it is very effective against fleas, ticks, lice, and other pests on dogs, cats, and birds.
DE is also an effective ORGANIC WORMER and will kill any worms or parasites the pets may have. When using as a daily food supplement or as a safe wormer, mix food grade Diatomaceous Earth with the pet food as follows:
Large Cats - 1 teaspoon
Kittens - 1/4 teaspoon
Dogs 100 lbs + - 1-2 tablespoons
Dogs 50 - 100lbs - 1 tablespoon
Dogs Under 50 lbs - 1 teaspoon
Mini dogs - 1/2 teaspoon
As pets get older, they also get sore joints. With Diatomaceous Earth in their diet they will feel better. Apply to moist kennel areas to reduce odors, dry the area, and prevent pest breeding. Deodorizing and absorption are natural functions of DE, so add to kitty litter to absorb odors and keep the litter box drier.

Did this work?
I was told about this by a breeder and decided to try it. My dogs have been on it for a year and I noticed that it took a bit and I was noticing a few ticks here and there (I don't have a flea problem). That was last Summer. This Summer, while everyone has been commenting about what a terrible tick year this has been, I have not seen one single tick. I use the Cedarcide spray to repel and the DE on the inside and have not used any spot-one for three years now. I will never go back to it and am convinced it is not good for our pets. So, to answer your question, Yes, this works. lol
