Bora-Care, produced by Nisus, utilizes a patented process that makes use of penetrants and glycols to provide long-term control of termites and other wood-destroying insects and fungi. Unlike soil treatment for termites, where chemicals can leach into waterways, Bora-Care is sprayed directly onto wood, concrete, and plumbing pipes. The product will not corrode metal fasteners, fittings, or nails; is less toxic than traditional pesticides; and can earn credits for LEED and other green building certifications.
