A great solution for killing those annoying pests in your garden or yard is diomataceous earth. It is non-toxic and is effective in killing any kind of hard-shelled insect. Diomataceous earth is basically coral that has been ground into a fine powder. If you have honeybees, just be sure to use on plants that are not flowering. A powdered sugar shaker is the perfect tool to apply a fine, even dust to plants.
