Joel, that sounds good, if the product have an ethylene glycol component to carrier the product into the cells of the wood. So it could reach the larvae better than with only water.

März 2022 20:15 An: pestlist@googlegroups.com Betreff: [PestList] Re: Bora-Care The efficacy depends on how you mix it and how many unfinished sides of the wood/timbers you can get at. for active infestation I would have your pest control operator mix 1:1 ratio(the concentrate is thick thick and needs to be warmed in warm water and mixed with hot water for a proper mix and final product spray). In general boric acid based products are some of the safest you can use. Bora-care does have an ethylene glycol component to it which acts as a carrier to take the product into the cells of the wood. Not sure of ratio... maybe the SDS would help. Once it is dry I can't imagine it harming anyone or anything except wood destroying insects chewing their way out or in.
