Do not use for a dust bath. You don’t want to be breathing in dust.  However, diatomaceous earth is used in the chicken coop by owners to keep it mite- and lice-free. When you apply, wear a face mask if you are sensitive to dust. First, clean out all the old bedding, then sprinkle it on the floor and bottom of the nesting boxes. Let the dust settle and then put fresh bedding on top.  You can also feed DE to chickens to prevent internal worms. The ratio is 2 percent diatomaceous earth in the feed you give them. Always make sure it’s FOOD-grade DE.
