I was at Lowes today. They have DE powder in a bag.
Is its active ingredient "Silicon " something ? . If it works, I don't care if it is food grade. I am not using inside or around animals.
I was also at Tractor Supply. I bought a container of Sevin Concentrate liquid bug/insect killer but I don't think it kills stink bugs. I bought it mainly to combat grasshoppers. There are zillions of them everywhere and my garden is adjacent to pasture and grass area.
