Unusual donation request: pet-safe insecticide!

We've got biting ants on our walking trails and our poor pups are getting eating up 😭 If anyone is able to donate any Diatomaceous Earth (or similar) crawling insect pest control (MUST BE PET SAFE!) until we can find a permanent solution that will work for us, our dogs and our dog-walking volunteers would greatly appreciate it!

We will update this post if and when we get a donation.
