Bora Care usually comes in a concentrate form and is made up of 40% disodium octaborate tetrahydrate, which is the active ingredient in Bora Care. The solution is mixed with clean, warm water to help it dissolve and then it’s poured into an applicator tank. For large areas and larger tanks, the water must be poured in first with the Bora Care being added slowly for a proper mix.

Bora Care can be applied in a number of different ways. For visible infestations that you can reach easily, the Bora Care solution can simply be sprayed on the wood until it is wet. You can also inject Bora Care into the wood to get rid of termites. This can be done by drilling small holes into the wood and filling them with Bora Care. A foaming agent can also be added and mied with two parts water and one part Bora Care. The foam can then be applied to the wood where it will expand and fill in every crevice. After about an hour, the foam will dissolve into a liquid and will be absorbed by the wood.

These are the most popular types of applications for Bora Care. A fogging machine can also be used for especially difficult places such as attics and crawlspaces. However, these machines should only be used by a professional and only as a last resort.

Bora Care is an excellent solution when you’re trying to get rid of termites. Not only is it highly effective, but it can also be applied in a number of different ways, depending on what you and your situation needs.

Bora-Care is comprised of borates, which are compounds made of the elements boron and oxygen derived from mineral deposits.  They destroy the insects’ natural digestive process, making it impossible for them to digest their food, causing them to literally starve to death.  Additionally, insects are unable to develop a resistance to Bora-Care because it is not a poison—it’s a disruption to their enzymatic system.

Once Bora-Care has been applied to a wood surface, it will become bonded to it, making it a permanent barrier against insects for the lifetime of the wood.  Exterior wood needs to be sealed after the Bora-Care is applied to ensure the weather does not affect the absorption and retention of the product.

Bora-Care can be purchased and applied by the homeowner, but it is advisable to have your pest control provider apply it since they have experience and can do a thorough job with less materials.  Because there are no odor or toxic fumes, you won’t even have to leave your home while it is being applied.
