Is There Really that much of a Difference in DE
Products?
YES!
Anyone who lumps all Diatomaceous Earth types together without
talking about the differences in crystalline and non-crystalline silica
is not only doing you a disservice, but also has not done their
homework.
Because diatoms form in any water and sometimes even on
land, their diversity is unmatched. Due to this, one can find himself or
herself using a low quality DE or one that can be very harmful to them
and their animals.
Because of water currents, most deposits of diatoms can be very impure,
some even dangerous. There are over 25,000 varieties of diatoms, having
different sizes and shapes. The mineral content of the deposits vary a
great deal, as water currents mix all kinds of foreign materials, some,
such as Arsenic, being dangerous or deadly. The shapes of the diatoms
are important as well. Some cigar shaped diatoms can actually stick in
the lungs or organs of the animals causing major problems. The DE we use
and recommend consists of cylinder shaped diatoms with a lattice like
shell that looks much like a sieve.
Hardness is also a concern because many if not most DE deposits are
inferior. Many are softer and therefore won’t be nearly as effective.
Perma-Guard DE has a hardness factor of 7 on a scale that puts a diamond
at a 9. This hardness factor allows the diatom particle to abrade the
waxy outer coating or cuticle on an insect’s body and absorb its body
moisture, and this same hardness is what works in the intestine of the
animal that consumes it.
West of the Mississippi, there are over 600 deposits of DE -- the vast
majorities are useless. In fact, Perma-Guard only knows of four deposits
that meet the FDA requirements to be called "Food Grade." So even if it
says "Food Grade" on the package, that doesn’t mean it is the highest
quality. In fact, most are inferior due mostly to impurities or
hardness.
International Agricultural Laboratories, Inc physicist, Carey Reams says
in summary, "All of the elements in Perma-Guard DE are so enjoined into
either a cheated or colloidal form until they appear to work in unison
with each other rather than as individual elements. Thinking of them as
individual elements is quite misleading. None of these elements found in
Basic Perma-Guard are considered poisonous."
