There was research done by TAMU at the Goat Research Center at Prairie View Univ using DE as a wormer. In the control group that had DE used as the only dewormer there was no evidence that DE had an effect on the worms. I don't know where you live but Ivermec and Safegard no longer work here in this part of Tx. You might want to do a fecal check before and after you use your dewormer to see if it is effective. Fecal checks in the long run are less expensive than buy expensive dewormer that isn't effective.
