Diatomaceous earth is an all-natural product made from tiny fossilized water plants called diatoms. These plant particles have razor-sharp edges that cut through an insect's protective covering and dehydrate them, potentially killing the insect.<ref>https://ift.tt/2KgHCjF> These powdered fossils are a natural pesticide used mostly for bedbugs, but are potentially effective against any carpet pests.
