However, diatomaceous earth is a concentrated source of silica, which makes it unique. ⇢ It works by taking moisture out of the mealy’s, so whilst it is safe if you get it on your skin, it will dry your skin very quickly, so please wear gloves and mask. ⇢ Also this is a natural substance so please use sparingly and carefully and only when needed. ✱ ✱ ✱ PLANT STUFF I LOVE AND USE ! ✱ ✱ ✱ Dr Bronner Castile Soap: ⇢ (AU) https://amzn.to/3S6vm8W ⇢ (US) https://amzn.to/4dE7uCf Isopropyl alcohol: ⇢ (AU) https://amzn.to/3vuGTGM ⇢ (US) https://amzn.to/3KSlfkn Iridescent pink plant mat: ⇢ (AU) https://amzn.to/3x70lL4 ⇢ (US) https://amzn.to/3xwZaVl Plant Water Meter: ⇢ (AU) https://a.co/d/ix7yv8V ⇢ (US) https://amzn.to/3KL2NtE Plant Velcro: ⇢ (AU) https://amzn.to/3Sbi37I ⇢ (US) https://amzn.to/3KK36Vz Plastic Moss Poles: ⇢ (AU) https://amzn.to/44GXmoW ⇢ (US) https://amzn.to/4bRMw1g Soil Scoops: ⇢ (AU) https://amzn.to/3WfCp0x ⇢ (US) https://amzn.to/3WarMvX Microfibres gloves: ⇢ (AU) https://amzn.to/3Aw75U2 ⇢ (US) https://amzn.to/3MbjQFV Plastic Spray Bottle (fine mist): ⇢ (AU) https://amzn.to/3AsRKU9 ⇢ (US) https://amzn.to/3yAeJfD *These are plant related products I LOVE & recommend.
