I think that’s also known as diatomaceous earth; which is indeed used for (amongst other things) controlling mites and similar insects in chicken coops.

I didn't know that you could use diatomaceous Earth against bed bugs but it doesn't surprise me. I too used it with my chickens, it's wonderful stuff, I never had any mite issues. Humans can actually consume it, not only is it not negative it's (supposedly) good for us. The person I used to buy it from used it to treat her high cholesterol levels and apparently it's also good against constipation.

Yes, diatomaceous earth has this effect on bedbugs. How does that translate into being useful on the Camino?

ON camino, not at all. Except of course if working as Hospitaleros, which some of the forum members do.
Should we however be unfortunate enough to bring a family of the little b***** home with us, (whether from actually on camino or in transit) it beats the heck out of bombing the place with artificial chemicals.

At Gite Poudally near Mas de Vers on the Le Puy route I was given an atomiser type intrument to puff 'sea shell' powder' on my sleeping bag - great gite 400m off path with purpose built accommodation off an old house. Fantastic meal, restaurant quality.

I hope that they gave you a mask to use so that you didn't inhale it!
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
