Available Starting May 15th - Borate Wood Preservative Concentrate
Borates are recognized as one of the most effective “green” wood preservatives available. Bora-Care® is a wood treatment with patented glycol penetrants that kills and prevents termites, carpenter ants, wood boring beetles and decay fungi. It can also be used to kill and prevent termites and wood boring beetles in existing construction.
The active ingredient in Bora-Care is a borate salt. Borate salts work by taking advantage of a unique feature in the biology of termites, ants and other insects. When ingested by termites, beetles, or ants, the insect becomes unable to extract nutrition from its food and starves to death. Due to this unique mode of action, insects have not been known to develop any resistance.
Bora-Care works differently than most other insecticides, termiticides, and fungicides, and even than other borate products on the market today. For starters, it isn’t applied to the soil but rather to the structure itself, guarding the very materials that termites and other pests view as a food. Secondly, it is designed to provide decades of residual protection when applied according to label, providing unparalleled peace of mind. Bora-Care’s unique patented blend of glycols works in combination with the borate salts to provide results that are hard to beat. As Bora-Care moves deep into the wood thanks to the glycols, it makes those treated timbers unhospitable to a whole range of wood destroying organisms in the process because they can no longer use the wood or other treated materials as a food source.
Bora-Care is an EPA-registered termiticide and is labeled for use as a primary termite treatment in new construction. Defend against multiple threats at once and protect your structure with Bora-Care.
