Harris Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth (DE) is a 100% natural product composed of ground freshwater diatomaceous earth, with no additives or fillers. The product is made from the fossilized remains of diatoms, a type of freshwater algae. These remains are ground into a soft, fine white powder that has a variety of uses. The product is completely safe to use around children and pets, as it is chemical-free.
Harris Diatomaceous Earth is listed with the Organic Minerals Research Institute (OMRI) for organic use. It is packaged in a 1/2 lb puffer bottle, allowing for easy application of a fine dusting of the powder.
For every $10 in profit generated from the sale of Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade, PF Harris pledges to donate $1 to the Etowah Valley Humane Society (EVHS), a private non-profit organization located in Cartersville, Georgia, near the PF Harris manufacturing plant. EVHS aims to prevent cruelty, relieve suffering, and provide humane treatment for animals in need, with the primary goal of finding loving homes for the animals in its care.
The impact of EVHS on local animal lives is impressive. Since 2010, the organization has rescued over 13,000 animals from Bartow County Animal Control. They have also helped increase the number of live animal pulls from the Bartow County facility from 69 per month to 207 per month, a 300% increase. Additionally, EVHS has assisted in decreasing the Bartow County euthanasia rate for six consecutive years.
PF Harris' Chief Financial Officer, Ed Brush, has been involved with EVHS for years. Recognizing the opportunity to support a local organization doing significant good, PF Harris partnered with EVHS to combat animal cruelty and find deserving pets loving homes.
PF Harris has a long history of problem-solving and innovation. The company was founded in 1922 and, just two years later, tackled the issue of a roach and water bug infestation at the Calvin Coolidge White House. Harris's product was so successful in eliminating the pests that the company was described in the Washington Times as a "vermin slayer" who had won a decisive battle. Over the following months, Harris expanded its reach, providing pest control solutions to numerous government buildings, including the Senate Office Building, the Department of Justice, the Supreme Court, and Walter Reed Hospital.
Today, PF Harris continues to stay ahead of market demands, developing innovative products such as natural insect repellents like Swamp Gator and Swamp Gnat, which repel biting insects without the use of DEET. Beyond its product offerings, the company provides helpful labeling, instructive videos, and personalized advice to assist customers in finding easy and economical solutions to their pest problems.
PF Harris is the oldest EPA-registered company in America, with more than 55 products that offer solutions for a wide range of pests, from roaches and bed bugs to scorpions and stink bugs.
