Product Overview
Bor-Ram is a new glycol-borate based termiticide, insecticide and fungicide that protects wood against termites, carpenter ants, wood-boring beetles (powderpost beetles), and wood fungi. If you are looking for an environmentally-friendly and safe product for use around homes, or in green-building initiatives, look no further. Bor-Ram is similar to BORA-CARE, and features a new Aqueous Dispersion Technology (ADT) making it easier to pour, mix and handle and easier to mix on cold water. Bor-Ram soaks deep into raw wood making it essentially termite-proof. Great for log cabins, attics, wall studs, termite pre-treatments and more. Bor-Ram should be applied to raw, unsealed wood (but after the product dries a sealant or stain can be applied). Can be applied to other surfaces besides wood, including concrete. Can be mixed with Mold-Ram for mold prevention.
This product used to be sold and marketed under the Envincio brand name.

NOT FOR SALE TO NY Coverage Area Post construction and active infestations use rate is 1:1
Preventative use rate is 5:1Special Features Mixes well in cold water Shipping Weight 12.00 lbs Manufacturer Zoecon EPA Registration 72304-10 BOR-RAM is a borate-based technology. Borates occur naturally in the environment and exhibit low toxicity to mammals, but are lethal to termites and other wood-destroying organisms. Since these pests have not shown any ability to develop a resistance to borates, pest management professionals as well as homeowners and the environment can benefit from their use. The termites and other wood-destroying organisms are simply out of luck!
BOR-RAM is easily spray applied to wood or other construction materials and establishes a borate barrier in the food source. Termites and other wood-destroying organisms are eliminated when the borate enters their digestive systems. The borate barrier then remains in place to continue controlling labeled pests.
Features:
• Glycol-borate penetrates wood for maximum protection
• Eliminates existing and prevents future infestations of labeled target organisms
• Establishes a borate barrier so treated wood won't be breached
• Can be applied to materials other than wood
• Prevents termites from tubing across concrete
• Appropriate for indoor and outdoor application
• Aqueous Dispersion Technology (ADT) simplifies pouring, mixing and product application
• Borate-based chemistry promotes environmental stewardship
• Can be tank mixed with MOLD-RAM® for surface mold and mildew prevention -

Read Full Answer »Yes, Bor-Ram can be applied to any type of wood including the subfloor as long as the wood has not been painted, stained, or sealed and it is raw wood. There will be no issues with covering the subfloor with laminate after the Bor-Ram has had time to dry which is usually only 24 hours. Bor-Ram has been discontinued by the manufacturer, so we recommend that you use Bora-Care. Bora-Care is also a borate product that is used for wood treatments against wood destroying insects.
