@toomanyinthekitchen: This is lime, and when you dust it around the foundation of your home, it repels insects. The best part is this stuff is all-natural. The lime provides an organic barrier that insects won't cross. You only need a thin layer to be effective. Use a shop vac on the lowest setting to apply it to your foundation. You can also use a handheld spreader or simply pour it around the base of your home. It's best to apply it every four to six weeks, and it doesn't wash away in the rain. Plus, it even helps with odor control in chicken coops. #firstsaturday #lime #pestcontrol #gardeningtips #EcoFriendly
