I'm having my log cabin stained with a water base stain. Can I add bora care, and what ratio?
Want to protect against carpenter bees and powderpost beetles.
Answer:
Boracare should not be mixed with the stain. Boracare needs to be applied to bare wood and allowed to dry completely before applying the stain. The product label recommends a 1:1 ratio for preventing powder post beetles in logs. Please note that Boracare is not specifically labeled for carpenter bees and has not been tested for this pest.
