I’m using a 1:1 ratio of bora care but still seeing evidence of active beetles. Just wondering if this is normal ?

Answer:

Yes, it is common to still see evidence after treatment with Bora-care. The beetles lie dormant for years and once they wake up they start consuming the wood, which is when we see the sawdust material. Now that it has been treated with Bora-care, once they consume the wood they will die.
