The new kittens have fleas. I could see a lot of them crawling all over the kittens and these guys are pretty dark which should make it hard to see the fleas. I rubbed some DE powder into their fur and immediately I could see the fleas running into their eyes and nose where I had not placed the powder. I didn't want to get powder in their eyes and up their nose. Diatomaceous earth is safe for them to ingest but I'm sure it would not be comfortable for them to have the powder in their eyes and nose. The diatomaceous earth powder is organic & food grade and is an excellent resource to have on hand when fostering. It can help with ear mites, fleas and ringworm. I wanted to show share this video with you to show you how fast I can start to kill and diverted please. It was just 2 minutes before this video that I applied the DE powder. Even using the blue Dawn for a bath does not completely remove all of the fleas. This is a great follow-up to a bath once they're fur has dried. You do have to be careful because it can dry out their skin so you'll want to give them another bath after the powder has been on them for a while. I also rubbed some DE powder into their bedding and into the carpet at the bathroom doorway. #depowder #DiatomaceousEarth #fleas
