  • A: Howdy neighbor! UltraCruz Poultry Diatomaceous Earth will work beautifully to treat ant hills in your yard or chicken coop! Because it is a food-grade powder, it kills ants naturally by dehydrating them, making it completely safe to use around your flock.

Q: Can this be used to completely cover the floor of the enclosure? Or would a different sand be needed for completely covering the floor and just add the diatomaceous earth to the top? If a different sand is best for the floor, what would you recommend?

  • A: Hi, This is intended to be used as a perimeter pest control and a different sand would be needed to cover the floor. This product can be used for premises by sprinkling as needed on the ground or in bedding areas. Additionally, it can be used by sprinkling 2lbs in the dust bath areas.

Rough delivery - wrong house

7 months ago
Delivery was dropped at the wrong house. Not even remotely close to the right address. Luckily my number was on the package so the person who got it called me and I was able to get the package.

Yes, I recommend this product.
