Is this duster useful for applications in the garden?

I think it is more useful for targeted applications, where you are trying to get it into a small space or specific area without spreading it everywhere.

It would be useful in the garden or anywhere else you'd like to use diamataceous earth. But diamataceous earth only works if it stays dry.

I would not use diatomaceous earth in the garden. It will kill beneficial insects as well as the "bad" insects. Moreover, since it's a drying agent it can also be harmful to frogs. Be careful!

It should work fine on a small garden. I only use it inside my house, garage, and enclosed back porch because it rains a lot here, and the rain will wash away the application. Since you water a garden, you may have to use a lot of the product quite often.

If you use it with a mask and goggles, yes. But it does kind of puff the diatomaceous earth out in a fine powdery mist and it will get in your eyes and lungs if you are not wearing protective gear.

haven't tried, don't know why it wouldn't be. without wind, of course. The one I ordered and received did not have the red pointed nozzle on the tube, but it works fine anyway. Keep it pretty full.

Yes it throws the leaves on the ground, its a great tool! I love it, has nice power aswell, try to use it before it rains, heavy wet leaves will take a little longer

I haven't tried it on dust, but it might work - it has enough power, I think, to do so. It works really well on crumbs.

I would say if it is like pea gravel or some type of small rock it may be helpful, but I'm afraid it would pick up larger landscaping type rock. When I use them to pick up leaves they even get some dirt

HI Judy, it does a fair job on small particles like needles and tiny branches, but kinda pushes the dust and dirt into a pile. I end up getting the broom and dust pan to sweep up the remnants that the spin sweep leaves behind. I use mine for the driveway and sidewalk close to a pine tree. I rate this item as a three, because it is a whole lot faster than sweeping the entire space with a push broom.

No, I don't think it would work well for that. I used it on pinecones and small branches and it worked well. I use my lawnmower with bag (Greenworks as well) to collect and mulch leaves.

I don't think this would be the ideal duster. Too heavy and thick. There are plenty of microfiber cloths available for that.

I have never used it for that particular purpose but I have used it for Lime, both powdered and granulated along with a variety of fertilizers and grass seed so my best guess is yes it would work for you.

If its a relatively dry environment it should be no problem. I would purchase a cover for it though. I've had it outside for over a month and it can get a little dusty on unused areas.

It isn't very porous. It let's wind through but probably not dust. I'm sure it would help with dust as long as the dust doesn't blow over the top since it's only 6ft high

Using diatomaceous dirt, I just tried the duster to see if it would disperse in a vertical position. It does. It sent out a fine spray of the dust. I have not used it with any other product since I am primarily fighting against crawling insects.

I used it on indoor/outdoor green carpet and it worked decent. It's not a miracle worker but it will pick up leaves, twigs, small stones, etc. Also, there is a height adjustment that will assist with heigh differences.

No it will not work welll with a large amount of leaves. This is a "light" duty blower. Very handy for small jobs but definitely not for a large pile of leaves.

I think it would be great for that. It is not powerful enough to be a leaf blower.

Yes, it works well on dust, hair, leaves, or just about anything on a hard even surface.

Not really as a broom especially with larger or a great deal of dirt or dust. It is much better suited for dusting and cleaning with the appropriate heads..

It will pick up dirt, loose pebbles, and leaves. I have been very pleased with it.
