Raina Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Hi all, I bought some Diatom yesterday and it arrived today and on the leaflet is says: Diatom has been used for at least 2 decades as a natural wormer for livestock.It's believed that the DE scratches & dehydrates internal Parasites.Some Scientists believe that the diatom is a de-ioniser or de-energiser of the worms and parasites.Regardless of the method of operation,farmers report definite control. So just wondering if anyone else uses it as a Wormer and does it work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 It is purely a preventative. I understand that tests show that it has some effect, but I wouldn't rely on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
