Bed from Greenville, Tx writes

Will this 85% DE in the 4 lb bag cause breathing problems or be toxic if it has already been put on mattress?

In my apartment, I have dusted it on the baseboards, carpet and all over the carpet in the area by the kitchen. I have also dusted it a foot around the baseboards, the window sill and on the mattress that I sleep on. I was wondering if this is too much or if it can hurt me or my lungs? I have had it down about a week. I have used it for bed bugs. So far it has worked.

Answer:

Diatomaceous Earth 85% - 4 lb. bag is labeled to be applied to cracks and crevices, carpet and mattresses. Please refer to the MSDS for more information on inhalation exposure. We always recommend wearing a mask during application. For additional safety information, please contact the manufacturer, VPG at 888-583-5296.
