Diatomaceous earth is a naturally occurring siliceous sedimentary rock that is crumbled into a fine white powder. It has numerous uses, including pest control, water filtration, and skin exfoliation. When used for chickens, it can help control pests such as mites and lice by dehydrating and killing them. It can also improve the quality of their feathers and aid in digestibility. However, it's important to use food-grade diatomaceous earth that does not contain any additives or chemicals harmful to chickens. Additionally, dusting too much diatomaceous earth can cause respiratory issues, so it's recommended to use it in moderation and follow the instructions carefully.@TudyBOT what is diatomaceous earth and is it usef for use with chickens?
