It is a bit sticky until it dries, but it dries quickly. Mix it with warm water.

We ordered 2 gallons of this product after noticing bore holes with fine sawdust on our log house. Application was easy per instructions. Questions were answered to our satisfaction by phone. We would recommend this product.

I am very pleased with the service of DoMyOwn, I ordered Bora-Care and needed it quickly, so I chose next-day shipping: it shipped almost immediately and arrived the next day (whereas other vendors are slow to package and ship so next-day is not really received next-day even though you pay for it). The product performed exactly as described: we mixed and sprayed it as directed, the results are great. A+rating from me.

I read the online info and figured out that my problem was powder post beetles. I had a fine powder all over my stairs and I followed the directions and so far, 3 days later, I have seen no sign of the powder again. I am keeping the rest of the Boracare in case I have the problem again as apparently the beetles can move to new territory.

I received my BoraCare in just a few days. This product was very easy to mix and spray in a pump up sprayer. I had dry wood termites in exterior lower foundation boards (garage area of my home). I removed the infected board and sprayed the area with Boracare. I also sprayed the foundation wall sills and exterior corner boards (end grain area) as well. I learned so much about this product from Do My Own Pest Control and their customer reviews, I'm happy that I found you and I'm telling my family and friends about your company and products. I expect great results from the Boracare. Jim

Great product that not only treats and prevents wood insects, it hinders molds and fungi spores. Easy to use and apply, it was perfect to spray into my attic before laying insulation. Shipped to my door immediately, this was a top rate product offered by a customer service oriented professional supplier.

Product as ordered, fast delivery and great pricing. No need to worry about counterfits as you do on a lot of other internet providers.:)

Very easy to apply. I used a stronger solution 1 to 1 ration because of the active fungi. dried totally in 2 days and was ready for primer paint. Primer went on smooth no problems.

Customer Service was fantastic, they were able to answer all questions and concerns. Purchased to treat antique chairs of wood worm. Additionally, Do My Own Pest Control had the best price.

I use it on trim and flooring, and all wood going into my shop for furniture projects, applying it with a garden sprayer to the backs of the material that is set up on multiple sawhorses. I always use it, having seen a powder post beetle infestation that ruined an antique Italian furniture collection.

mixing and distributing through a pump spray was perfect....however i am still spraying in certain spots in a crawlspace.....and cannot determine as of yet, if termites are dead....this treatment is more for preventative and a cure...

This stuff works well! It seems to be professional grade. I used it on my drywood termites to spot care around my home. I then dilluted it to spray completely around the foundation of my house, and so far, no more termite sightings. It takes care of them right through the wood!

Is the key. I bought a piece of reclaimed wood furniture that was infested with powder post beetles (of course, I didn't know what was going on until I'd had it for two years). After talking to 2 exterminators, who said to throw the furniture away, I decided to try Bora-care myself. I soaked down the furniture up right, and upside down, twice--then I waited. After several months, I did it all over again and let it sit for 9 more months. After a full year, I thought we were totally in the clear and moved it back into the house. Now, after 3 months in the house, I have a small patch of sawdust. I feel confident enough to spray the small space multiple times and continue to use it. I mean, this linen chest was INFESTED. You have to allow a long time for this to sink in but, for me, it was worth trying to save my furniture that I love. I do believe it works to the fullest, you just have to invest the time if you want to save the wood!

this is way easy to treat and prevent termite to do your self, I also ordered premise foam termiticide, you can use needle loacated termite nest, then drill a small hole, use foam termiticide the pressure will force termiticide into wood and spread out, when termite contact it, they will die. after couple days wait wood dried, I use liquid wood fill up termite damage area. it is so easy and save lot money to hire some one to do it. most of all, this company has excellent customer support, my first package was broken and Bora care leaking out, and foam termiticide was missing. after I contact them, they resend my order very fast and with out charge any thing. very good products and excellent customer service.

Easy to mix. I used a paint brush for boracare. Liquid consistency even with 1 to 1 ratio. I used it for the attic and garage. Termite company never want you to use this because they will go out of business. I also saved a ton of money by doing it myself. Lots of work for me but well worth it to not have any dry wood termites anymore. Good preventive measure by using bora care. Customer service at domyown were A ++++. I called several times for help in using this. I am by no means a handy person. I can only do caulking and now painting boracare.

Domyown.com was terrific! The ordering process was easy, it arrived earlier than expected. A big name pest company wrote in their formal pest report that my home needed to be tented and gased. That not only I, but my tenants would need to be out of the house for 5 days! All this because I saw TWO, small holes with sawdust in my new hardwood floors. The pest company stated they would first spray Bora-Care in the basement, under the area of the, only two, posthole beetle holes. My son went under the house in the crawl space, saw no evidence of beetles, saw no sawdust. I decided to order Bora-Care and treat the areas myself. In reading about the product, it seemed fairly non-toxic. I purchased a glass eyedropper, mixed a few table spoons of Bora-Care as directed. I got down on my bedroom floor, carefully directed the Bora-Care into the 2 holes. Unbelievable...I saw the beetle start trying to climb up out of the hole! It didn't live long, I watched it die right there in the hole!! :). I killed it!! Needless to say I felt highly successful, but also mad the pest company would report I needed a $5000 tenting for the situation!! So far so good, haven't seen any other posthole beetle activity. Need to add, I am a 64 year old woman! Thank you DoMyOwn.com for providing the exact product the pest company was going to use!!!

Dear DoMyOwn, I wanted to say, Thank You, because without this site, countless people would be wasting a lot of their hard earned money on companies trying to take advantage when there is a pest problem in their homes, I almost fell for it myself. Without this site, I would of ended up paying a pest company $750 to spray my basement for Post Powder Beetles. I bought this product which is SO easy to use, just mix with water and start spraying!

A little messy applying but did the trick. Applied inside and out and most of the beetles disappeared. Delivery quick and easy. The entire project went real smooth.

Not hard to use. I love the fact that it has no Oder! Even if you get it on your finished products like wood floors, it comes off without ruining anything.

I was surprised at how easy this product was to use. Rather than pay a pest company to tent our home we chose to spray our entire attic with Bora Care. Why?? Because we don't want future infestations of termites! Bora Care information says that once sprayed, termites cannot exist in the wood. It is very important to take sprayer apart after each use and rinse each part as otherwise it does harden in the sprayer. Because it takes time to soak in, we won't know how effective the product is for some period of time. But I am tracking to be able to share results in the future.

Great STuff. It is concentrated so make sure you mix well before putting into a garden sprayer. It will gunk up the works if you don't mix properly. It leaves an oily residue so you know it is working.
