Question about diatomaceous earth in compost

catherinet
9 years ago

I have chickens and always put their old bedding (wood chips and poo) into the compost. But recently I got to thinking.........I do add diatomaceous earth to the bedding to keep mites and lice down. Would this in the compost kill off any of the good organisms that help decompose the pile?
Thanks
