Insect
control in Wool, Hay and Paper when used for Insulation in buildings Borax
is a specially formulated Boron based compound dissolved in only in water. It
contains no solvents or additives of any kind. This product is designed to penetrate
into the wool and hay where the insects live and breed and into wood, where woodworm
live and breed. There are many unpleasant chemical insect and woodworm treatment
products on the market today, but be careful because many based on hazardous chemicals
that evaporate into your rooms - into the air that you breathe. The active Borate
in Borax does not evaporate, so remains where you want it - inside the wool, hay
or wood. Borax will not lose its effectiveness, even if vacuuming occurs. Female
insects lay their eggs on insulation and bare timber surfaces. These eggs hatch
into a small worm like larvae. Insect larvae then feed on the wool, hay or wood
treated with Boron based Borax. They never reach the adult stage. Borax is designed
to inhibit insect larvae that eat into the wool, hay or wood, preventing infestation
and future damage. As long
as label safety directions are followed, there should be no harmful effects to
the people or pets in the house. Borax
is specially formulated to dry dust-free and there is no clean up needed after
treatment. It is a true solution in water: no added chemicals, solvents or dyes. For

Application
for insect Control Wool
based Carpets or Fabrics:: Apply Borax to freshly cleaned or vacuumed carpets
or fabrics only, otherwise the dust and debris in the material may reduce the
penetration of the Borax solution. Apply using either a carpet cleaning machine,
a hand spray pump, by brush or by dipping. Vacuum off the excess fluid using a
wet vac or a carpet cleaning machine, or, for fabrics, allow to dry naturally
or spin out mechanically. Collect all run-off and re-use. Keep unprotected people,
pets and children out of the treatment area for at least 1 hour, or until dry,
whichever is the longer. Timber:
Apply Borax with a spray applicator, by dipping or by brush. Allow to dry fully
before handling. Any damp timbers (over 18% Timber Scale) should have an additional
treatment with Boron Ultra Gel, by brush. Damp or wet timbers bearing onto or
inside a wall also require injection with Boron Ultra 78 Paste. Add Boron Rods
to such timbers if likely to remain permanently or seasonally wet - for example,
in very thick stone walls.
Guarantee Property
Repair Systems guarantees the product for 20 years, provided that the treated
materials are not subject to water leaks or flooding. Borax
will NOT kill some types of adult insects, which, due to their life cycles, may
emerge after treatment - this is called the 'fly out period' and for Common Furniture
Beetle, for example, is 3 to 5 years. It will prevent re-infestation, so that
the attack will die out - this process is the same for most surface treatments
and is referred to as 'breaking the egg laying cycle'. If
you have questions, feel free to call 01626 221301.

unique odourless treatment, already to dissolved in water, designed to treat Wool

problems of many liquid preservatives by using only water as a carrier. It can

type insecticides, including Permethrin (which for example, like all Pyrethroids,
is highly toxic to fish and birds, and gives off a vapour into the air you breathe). Ready
