Sprinkle it around their bedding and any other areas they frequent if you can once a month. Trust me this shit works. I don't use any chemicals on my pets or lawn anymore. just this DE. As I cut the grass I pull a spreader with it. Takes about 5 bags to cover 2 acres. Cost me like $65 a month to keep all insects out. chemicals would cost me double or triple that and not be as effective.
Choker is absolutely correct. Here is some additional information on DE:
