the product name was "MotherEarth D - Diatomaceous Earth." What makes alpine dust different? please respond quickly. :) thanks
The Mother Earth D.E. has not been discontinued. Our website states that the manufacturer of the Mother Earth DE no longer carries/produces it in the 8 oz size bottle, only the 10lb bucket. The Alpine DE is made by a different company and does come in the smaller 8 oz size. The Alpine has 95% DE and .25% Dinotefuran which gives a quicker knock down of the pest over the Mother Earth which is only 100% DE. Both can be used in the same areas of a home and both are still very safe products to use. Please let us know if you have any other questions.
