    Question creative uses for used DE?

    Has anyone considered using dirty DE for anything?

    I was thinking of back washing and cleaning the grids on a tarp to capture the DE and using it as "mulch" around my equipment pad. I would hope it would pack so tight no weeds would grow.

    Anyone doing this or anyhing else creative? Currently It just goes into the grass.

    Not sure about weed control but it is good for keeping away bugs.
