Impact can provide application as required. Should you choose not to fumigate, when fumigation is not possible and should the building qualify for this protocol, an odorles, ecologically sound Sodium Borate application can be made to all accessible structural members. EPA registered, low toxicity material is designed to penetrate and protect all types of wood from infestations of drywood termites and beetles. How Sodium Borates Protect Boron is a common element that happens to be toxic to many insects and some forms of bacteria. Effectiveness of borate's against insects such as termites and wood boring beetles is well documented.
Boron kills thhe beneficial microbes that live in the termites gut.
These microbes help the termite to digest food and without them, the insect essentially starves to death. The process is slow and deliberate. The Treatment Process Impact technicians must first provide a complete inspection of the building to determine locations of visible and accessible infestation. Next, our technicians will access available wood members in the structure. Then using specialized treating equipment deliver enough borate to the wood thus controlling existing infestations and providing permanent protection against future infestations.
