If I were you, I wouldn't give it to any of my pets. No matter what is said by one or thousands. Why take that chance. It kills bugs from the inside out, why would anyone take a chance on doing that. It doesn't make sense to put any pet at risk. I would use it on the bugs, but put it in places that the pets can't get to. I love my pets way to much to take that chance.
I would feel sooooooooooooo bad if something happend to my pets because of me.
I have earwig issues so I will use it but not where my animals lay,run, or play. My understanding is that DE attacks then when they eat it , it does someting to there inside
Good luck to your pet
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 16501403 And yet I'll bet you will happily put a liquid poison from your vet onto your pet. One that kills bugs by putting poison into the bloodstream of your pet, so that the bugs will ingest the poison when they bite your pet. DE is perfectly safe internally and externally. I've used it regularly on dogs, cats, equines and myself for many years without issue. Including inhaling plenty of it. Of course you don't want to overdue the inhalation of a powder of any kind. Diatomaceous earth is also very drying, so will dry out your skin from handling it. Nothing earth shattering though!
