Western Australian Freshwater HUDSON DE-CIDE, made from shells of fossilized tiny aquatic organisms called diatoms. Plant growth by silica into plant available form.
Our Diatomaceous Earth is mined and packed in Western Australia. We offer finely screened raw Diatomaceous Earth in powder form, bringing a wide range of uses, benefits and market potential. We welcome all commercial and stockist enquirers.
Diatomaceous Earth is a source of Silica for plants and soils and it can be raked into the soil, dusted, and sprayed over plants, chook pen and the backyard garden. Diatomaceous Earth must be present in the environment for it to work.
BENEFITS
| Promote Plant Growth Through Plant Available Silica |
| Increase Soil Water Holding Capacity |
| Encourages Beneficial Microbial Soil Activity |
| Increased Pest & Disease Resistance Thanks To Increasing Plant Tissue Strength |
| Inert Chemical Reactivity |
| Decrease Soil Salinity By Diluting Sodium Content |
| Natural Pest Control By Desiccation |
IMPROVING SOIL STRUCTURE
- AERATION: Thanks to the unique porous structure of Diatomaceous Earth it enhances the aeration and drainage of the soil. With these enhancements water logging is reduced, there is better moisture retention and better root penetration in the soil and water is better retained in the soil. Very useful for drought ridden soil and sandy soils. This improved structure is conducive to the overall health of the plant.
NUTRIENT RETENTION
- Amorphous Silica Source: Our Australian Diatomaceous Earth is high in silica, a highly beneficial micro-nutrient which was once, a million year ago, a living form of silica. Its soil structure improvements allow the silica to be easier absorbed into the cell walls of plants, highly beneficial to the overall health and strength of the plant and increasing pest and disease resistance.
- Mineral Content: Our Diatomaceous Earth mined in Western Australia also contains beneficial macronutrients such as magnesium, calcium, sodium and iron which are important elements for the growth of plants and better soil conditions.
PEST CONTROL
- Diatomaceous Earth is highly versatile, a popular use is as a natural form of mechanical pest control to kill soft bodied insects such as cockroaches and fleas. Unlike chemical forms of pest control, pests cannot develop a resistance against Diatomaceous Earth. DE is great to use indoors and outdoors for plants and animal dusting.
POULTRY DUSTING
- Diatomaceous Earths pest control properties and organic nature make it suitable as a form of animal dusting to keep pests off your chooks. Very lightly coat the Diatomaceous Earth onto the chooks body or sprinkle lightly in the chicken pen floor mixing with saw dust. IMPORTANT: Our DE is raw and organic. Amorphous in makeup which is suited for green purposes. It is not crystalline DE which is poisonous and commonly used for pool filters. It is not a registered food product but allowable as an animal feed supplement.
