Board Defense is an insecticide, termiticide and fungicide concentrate for the control of wood destroying insects and rot. It is a very versatile product for the protection and treatment of wood against all wood destroying organisms. Board Defense is a water-soluble white powder. It can be used dry or in solution to form an effective penetrating solution. There are no hazardous solvents and no odors. The active ingredient in Board Defense, Disodium Octaborate Tetrahydrate, is a borate derivative that will not break down over time. Borates have been used as a safe and effective pest control for over 40 years.
Board Defense is applied as a dust or solution for treatment of wood against wood destroying organisms and for general insect and fungus control. When applied as a solution, Board Defense will use the moisture present in wood to penetrate deep into the board. Since Board Defense does not break down, the active ingredient will be drawn deeper into the wood over time. This provides long lasting and effective protection.
