I bought this after knowing for a few years that we get carpet beetles every year right after the winter snow goes away and the sun starts to heat up the area around April-May. Saw 2 carpet beetles climbing on my bedding and finally decided I was going to spray some stuff around... One piece of advice is to definitely get a dust thrower. The bottle itself is insufficient for simply snipping off the cap and using the nozzle to spread the material. It just leaves a huge line, or pile, which isnt what you want - they'll just walk right around it instead of trekking thru it - you want a fine dusting. This stuff does very slightly irritate the lungs, so wear a respirator or have something to help protect yourself. There's no odor to it, as far as I can tell. After spraying a few puff around the room there was a noticeable haze in the air, and I had to clean off my cameras because of the dusty film that was covering them. So, keep in mind that you may have to cover some things like electronics if you use it indoors. I like that desertcart puts it in a bag during shipping. You do have to snip the tip before use, as well. No leaks from my container. Review: So Far So Good... - Purchased this to combat a bug problem in my bedroom. I have to say at the moment it is working as promised. I applied a bit in a particular portion of my carpet, then rubbed it in using a glove, and repeated through the whole carpet in the room. I really cannot see it, which I think is amazing. Also used it on the nooks, crannies, headboard, window sill, and closet floor in my room, as well as in my storage bench. The tough part will be leaving it for 2-3 weeks as recommended, but if it does the job and kills whatever is occurring, I have no problem with that. I have to mention that I also did throw my stuffed animals and the clothes hanging in my closet into the dryer on the highest heat, and hot washed my bedding and dried it on the highest heat. There was also some serious vaccuming, shaking of rugs, and placing mothballs in the closet and in the plastic storage containers in my room, and I also have a mattress cover with a box spring cover coming to replace the one I had to get rid of. My point in saying this is that you have to do a lot more then just put the earth down and trust it will work. I think a lot of the people who have given this one or two stars have just applied it and hoped it would work without rubbing or working it into the carpet, not letting it settle, or vaccumed it up before it could take the desired effect. It is still early days, and I will update after 2-3 weeks, but as it stands right now, I am satisfied with this product. UPDATE: So after applying this and leaving it for a month, I am happy to say that I have not seen any live bugs for about a month. Within the first week I found a couple of dried out dead ones here and there, but overall the results have been grand! I have done a reapplication this past week just to be doubly sure that I have gotten rid of them from my room, but am pleased so far! NOTE: I have also taken other various steps. I removed all wooden bulky furniture from my room and replaced it with light and collapsible chairs. I hot washed and dried all my linens and hanging up clothes. I invested in a HEPA filter vacuum for better clean up. All my personal effects are now stored in plastic containers. And I caulked every crack and hole I found in my room with silicone sealant. My point is that yes there is more to this than just the dusting. I still check my mattress and box spring every other day to make sure there is not a stray at all. Hopefully this will continue and I will continue to be free of these nuisances. ## Features - Comprehensive - The powder is great for a thorough treatment, as it's able to effectively treat hard to reach areas - Easy Application - The puffer tip makes application simple and allows the product to be used right away - Fast Acting - Insects coming into contact with the powder will die within 48 hours of initial contact - Long Residual - Continues to kill bed bugs for weeks after application as long as it's kept dry - EPA Registered & OMRI Listed - Registered with the Environmental Protection Agency (No. 73729-1-3) for Use in Homes with People/Pets and Listed with the Organic Minerals Research Institute ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Active Ingredients | Diatomaceous Earth | | Brand | HARRIS | | Item Form | Powder | | Item Weight | 1.6 ounces | | Target Species | Insects | | Unit Count | 8 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Active Ingredients:** Diatomaceous Earth - **Brand:** HARRIS - **Item Form:** Powder - **Item Weight:** 1.6 ounces - **Target Species:** Insects ## Images ![Harris HDE-8 Bed Bug Powder Diatomaceous Earth, 8oz, Yellow - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61rsw0StCmL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fine-milled Sand-like Dust *by N***S on May 7, 2026* Looks like some good quality stuff.
