How to Use Bora-Care To use Bora-Care effectively, follow these steps: Preparation: Ensure that the wood you are treating is raw and untreated. Bora-Care cannot be applied over painted, stained, or sealed surfaces. Mixing: Bora-Care should be mixed with water before use. Always pre-mix in a separate container before filling your spray equipment. The typical dilution ratio is 1:1 with water, but it can vary depending on the application. Application: Apply Bora-Care using a spray, brush, or foam onto bare wood surfaces. For remedial treatments, it can be injected into active infestations or applied to the surface of infested wood. Coverage: Ensure even coverage over all exposed wood surfaces. The product should be applied to the point of surface saturation.
