TIM-BOR professional
Timbor is a wood preservative that works as an insecticide and fungicide. The active ingredient in Timbor is disodium octaborate tetrahydrate, a natural borate compound. Insects are exposed to the active ingredient by eating treated wood or by ingestion while grooming. Borates are a contact toxicant to fungi. The borates prevent metabolism of food by insects and fungi causing death.
When Timbor is applied as a liquid to the surface of bare wood, it diffuses into the wood to make the wood itself toxic to wood destroying organisms such as wood decay fungus or drywood termites. Timbor is labeled for the control and prevention of wood decay fungi including white rot, brown rot, poria and wet rots.
