To the rescue of grease stains and bed bugs!

Sommières earth is an ultra-fine clay that can absorb up to 80% of its weight in water. This earth is a great dry stain remover for greasy stains (oil, butter, gasoline, makeup, etc.) and can be used on delicate surfaces (textiles, carpets, leather, marble, granite, cabinetwork, tiles, stone, concrete).

It also absorbs and neutralizes many other types of stains: urine on cushions, wine stains on tablecloths and many more!

Fighting bedbugs

Most recently, scientists at the University of Nice discovered that Sommières clay is the most effective material for combating bedbugs. We tell you a little more about it in our blog article: How to use Sommières clay against bedbugs? Read the article in La Presse: Fight the invader without chemicals

Fuller's earth: a natural solution against bedbugs

Bedbugs, these unwanted little invaders, are not only a source of discomfort: they turn our nights into real headaches. Good news, there is a natural, ecological and effective solution to say goodbye to them: Sommières clay. This ultra-absorbent clay, already well known for its stain removal prowess, could well become your best ally in this fight.

A stain remover that does more than just fight stains

Before we talk about bedbugs, let's take a minute to salute the multifunctional talent of Sommières clay. Made from natural clay, it absorbs up to 80% of its weight in water and removes greasy stains from almost everything: textiles, carpets, leather, marble and even concrete. A sort of discreet, but formidably effective household superhero.

And recently, it has made a notable entrance into a whole new category: bedbug control.

How Sommiere's Clay, Fuller's Earth Fights Bed Bugs

Researchers from the University of Nice have highlighted the dehydrating properties of this magic powder. So how does it work? Simply by exploiting its absorption power:

Fatal dehydration: When it comes into contact with a bedbug, Fuller's earth causes micro-tears in its cuticle, leading to rapid and irreversible water loss.

Proven effectiveness: laboratory tests have shown a significant reduction in populations after uniform application of the soil. In short, we can say that bedbugs don't see anything wrong... or rather, powder.

How to use it at home

The application is simple:

- Identify infested areas (mattress seams, baseboards, cracks, etc.).

- Sprinkle a thin layer of Sommières earth generously.

- Leave to act for several hours, ideally overnight.

- Carefully vacuum up the powder, and that's it.

It is a gentle method for your home and the environment, without any harmful chemicals.

An ecological and responsible solution

In addition to being effective, Sommières earth is an environmentally friendly alternative. Unlike chemical insecticides, it poses no risk to your health or that of your pets. It is a solution that combines efficiency, simplicity and respect for the planet.

So, whether it's for stubborn stains or to put an end to a bedbug invasion, Sommières clay proves that it deserves a special place in your household essentials. Not bad for a powder that, a few years ago, still went unnoticed.
