Bora-Care® - One Gallon

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. If ingested by ants, beetles or termites, the insect becomes unable to extract nutrition from its food and starves to death. And because of this unique mode of action, insects cannot develop a resistance, ever.

Bora-Care® works differently than most other insecticides, termiticides and even other borate products on the market today. For starters, it isn't applied to the soil but to the structure itself. Secondly, it isn't just a repellent or a bait but a little bit of each. Bora-Care's unique patented blend of glycols in combination with a borate salt provides results that are hard to beat. As soon as beetles and ants attempt to consume treated wood they die. Subterranean termites won't even try to eat treated wood and if they attempt to build a tube on treated wood, the termites start to die. This alerts the termite colony and they abandon the wood.
