(I'M SURE IT'S MIS SPELLED) I'll be getting my order of the D/E on Thursday. It's the food grade variety. I need to know how and were to apply it for maximum relief of ants and minimum chance of harm or discomfort to my tortoises. Can I sprinkle it on top of the soil? should I mix it in with the soil? My Big R/F has a cement pool in his pen. If he walked through the D/E and then took a dunk to cool off, he would transfer some into his pool and he usually drinks a bit while he's in there.....see my concern. Also, my nose isn't 1/2" above the ground and I can't breathe it. It is supposed to feel like crawling on "broken glass" to an ant. Is it truly safe for a tortoise? I'd like to hear tips from some that have used this product already and what your observations are. Thank you. (I'm not planning on using it until after the raining season.)
