| We have a new kitten - about 5 weeks old - with fleas. I thought i heard Howard G. say once that it was ok to lightly dust a cat (kitten?) with DE. Has anyone ever heard of that? Is it safe? Effective? |

| It can be used on kittens but is drying to the fur and skin. Orange oil sprayed inside and nematodes used outside is a better program. Also recommend strongly feeding the Muenster Natural Cat Food which contains the DE I recommend. DE used inside the animals is a much approach. |
