Hi all,
In my search for Diatomite I've heard that a kitty litter named cleansorb is the same product. Has any one used this or know anything about it, not sure of the size of it also. Seems hard to find a store which stocks Diatomite in Brisbane at the moment.
Any info would be great.
Cheers,
Sam

Re: Cleansorb diatomite ?
This is Mt Sylvia diatomite Sam. If you go to a produce store or large pet store they will have it, but the price can vary. The best price I have found is $13.60 at D-Bay Produce but some pet stores sell it for as much as $19.00
