What is Diatomaceous Earth?

Diatomaceous Earth is a naturally occurring soft sedimentary mineral formed from the fossilised remains of microscopic aquatic organisms known as diatoms. These organisms possess silica-based skeletal structures which accumulate over time and form a fine powder rich in silica.

Health Leads Diatomaceous Earth is sourced from fresh water deposits and is classified as food grade. Fresh water deposits typically contain a higher proportion of intact diatom structures and lower levels of sediment and clay.

This product is a naturally occurring silica-rich powder that has a wide range of practical uses in domestic and agricultural environments.
