it is also great for worming both pets and humans, good for intestinal health,(if this is food grade i'm not sure?) pesticidal.. uses a drying dessication action on the insects. like a desert full of razor blades to ants, roaches, and gets rid of bed bugs if you're not able to get a pest controller straight away.
