Insect-a-Shield
How's it Different?
Conventional insect poisons kill with gross impact on the insect's respiratory system and the poisons in
these insecticides are also bad for humans.
In contrast, Insect-a-Shield is odorless and harmless to humans and animals. It causes bugs to rapidly
dehydrate and die.
During demonstrations, Dennis Lee drank insect-a-shield powder mixed with water as proof it's harmless
and he reported feeling better by the end of the tour because Insect-a-Shield is known to kill parasites.

What's in it?
Insect-a-Shield is based on diatomaceous earth and has other ingredients that facilitate delivery. It's a
natural and safe alternative to poisonous insecticides.
Also added to most varieties is Pyrethrum, one of mans oldest insecticides - highly lethal to insects. It
comes from chrysanthemum flowers located in Kenya and Ecuador and is a digestible vegetable extract of
the flower. Piperonyl butoxide is another vegetable extract that is an insecticide in its own right. It is added
to Insect-a-Shield to greater enhance the Pyrethrum and make it more effective. Together, these three
ingredients make Insect-a-Shield a safe and effective bug killer.
More Reasons to Use Insect-a-Shield
Do your part to help reduce the huge problem of contamination to our water and plant life, caused in great
part by the widespread use of conventional chemical insecticides, especially in the agricultural industry.
Insect-A-Shield is a safe and superior alternative to these chemicals. We're responsible for what we put
into our planet. Shouldn’t we use something safe and natural for all rather than toxic? Insect-A-Shield is the
natural choice and a fantastic safe alternative for insect control.

Special notes about the products and use
Insect-a-Shield comes in seven varieties, however In our family's experience, we've discovered that all of
the Insect-a-shield products kill all varieties of insects, so we're not very concerned about which variety we
find to use. We simply sprinkle any variety of Insect-a-Shield powder on any insect, or where bugs travel,
and they're history. Also, our family understands that government agencies, seeking to justify their
existence, often require absurd and unnecessary warnings on the label as in the case with Insect-a-Shield.
