Answer:

i have no idea what that is so i dont know im sorry but maybe you could look in home depot they always have what my dad he is a pest person
Most any growing center or nursery
a garden center or a store that sells a lot of plant stuff.
the garden section of your favorite big box store, home improvement center, or hardware store or at your favorite garden store. It's used in potting soil mixes. You can buy it by the bag.
A Nursery would sell it. Home Depot or a place like one of those chain home stores would also have it. You could also call your local extension office if you have problems finding it. They would be able to help you as well.
