Kerbl Diatomaceous Earth Powder – Natural Coop Drying Agent, 100 g

Diatomaceous Earth Powder – Natural Coop Drying Agent for a Healthy Environment

With Diatomaceous Earth Powder from Kerbl, you choose a coop drying agent made from 100% fossil diatoms. It features high moisture binding, which helps optimise the coop climate for chickens and poultry and ensures a dry environment. In poultry keeping, diatomaceous earth is also commonly used against crawling pests such as red mite, lice and fleas hiding in cracks and crevices.

Since the product is derived from natural diatomaceous earth and contains silica, the quality of eggs and meat remains unaffected. You can use the fine powder throughout the coop area to support hygiene and well-being when used according to the instructions on the label. Application is flexible, as you can choose between targeted dry application or liquid use. Whether in nests, on perches, or directly in the bedding, the powder is easy to distribute by hand or with a duster.
