Where can I get Diatomaceous Earth? What do I look for? I go in the store & cannot find it. I am totally lost on this. Please help! Thank you :)

Thanks, but I can find that info online. What I cannot find out is what do I look for at the store? What products? What brands? What section of the store? I see a gazillion products & cannot possibly read them all.

Umm you can purchase DE from the website Metro linked above. Are you looking to buy it or are you just wanting to "look" at it at a store?

I did not want to order online, nor did I want to be limited to just one product. I wanted to know what to look for in the stores. Thank you.

If you're shopping at a halfway decent nursery or garden store, the staff should know exactly what you're talking about when you ask for "diatomaceous earth" - I'm not aware of any brand names or anything for the product. But if you're at a big box store or something like that, try asking for the slug control products - that's usually where to find it. :)

I guess you could just go to your local home improvement store and ask a sales clerk to point you in the right direction. Either that or, sadly enough, you just might have to read all of those labels on those gazillion products.

Thank you all :)

I even went to my local nursery one time and jokingly asked about "diabolical" earth. The owner (who is a personal friend) laughed and knew exactly what I was talking about.
