Where to buy DE in Canada

[haxx777]

If anyone is looking for Pool DE in Quebec, they are finally carrying it at Trevi (at least in Dorval). It's $38 CDN for 25lbs. Not amazing, but way cheaper than getting it shipped from the US. You have to ask for it as it's stored in the back.

Thanks for the PSA!! I'm sure there are many that will welcome the news.

I just found this possibility in Ontario, but you have to call support for the correct price.
Diatomaceous Earth - Pool Chemicals - Pioneer Family Pools

I was going to give my Canadian (ON) friend some DE for his sand filter, but then we thought better of sending him through a border crossing with a ziplock full of a fine white powder...

Wise decision!

My pool is fine now, so I'll just leave well enough alone for now! Thanks for the Quebec source!

I once sent me mother-in-law back to NY with a large back of food grade DE for her veggie garden. It wasn’t until after she left that I realized how suspicious that would look. She had no problems thankfully.

Yah! I’ve found it hard to find border agents with a sense of humor...
