BORACARE (Bora care) is a borate-based product that provides prevention and control of Termites, Carpenter Ants, Powderpost Beetles and Decay Fungi. Boracare can be used on all cellulosic materials including wood, plywood, particle board, paper, oriented strand board (OSB), cardboard, and wood composite structural components. Boracare by itself does NOT treat or prevent mold, however a mold preventative called mold ram can be added to your Boracare mixture which will prevent mold and mildew from growing on the treated wood.

Active Ingredient: |
40% Disodium Octaborate Tetrahydrate |
|
Target pests: |
Wood Destroying Fungus and wood-destroying insects such as termites, carpenter ants, powderpost beetles, etc. |
|
Application: |
For powder post beetles, Boracare must be used on untreated wood. It is preferred over other treatments such as timbor in treating furniture because Boracare dries clear and will leave the furniture in its natural state. It will also absorb much further into the wood so you know the infestation is treated. |

Yield: |
One gallon of Bora-Care will treat approximately 100 lineal feet of 2 x 4 stud wall. This includes sill plate and header. For other dimensional lumber, logs, or siding and plywood, please see the product label to the left. |
