Nisus Tim-BOR Professional Insecticidal Dust, Water-Soluble Borate Powder, Wood Preservative and Fungicide for Termites, Carpenter Ants, Wood Decay, 1.5 lbs

I was worried about it being easy to use or not, the powder is quite light and fluffy and easy to spill. But it was easy to mix with water. Easy to apply and comes with instructions. I think if you seal this in an airless bag you can make it last. Better option that more toxic alternatives. Wear a mask!

Hands down amazing product you wont regret it .

I watched a how to video on Tim-Bor powder and mixed a 15% solution with ease. No problem mixing 1.5 pounds in a gallon of warm water with a drill and paddle bit. Absolutely no problem. I had made some deck stairs and ordered this product to spray on them. Waited for the wood to dry out for three weeks and sprayed the steps today. I got a sprayer at ACE Hardware for cheap. I wish I would have gotten a better sprayer because the how to video guy said not to apply it so thick that it drips. Well, my deck steps look like it poured rain on them after I was done. I did some of my fence to and it was easier to manage not to drip. I will see how it does. Only time will tell. I hope it doesn't matter that I put this on pressure treated wood. I realized that Nissus makes a product specifically for pressure treated. I hope I didn't waste my money.

Mixes well with water, especially hot water.

I had some windows replaced so wood was exposed so that I could apply this product. My Bug company recommended this. I mixed it in a container and put it on with a rag while wearing gloves. There was no smell and it absorbed quickly. It was a fair cost and a much needed product for an older home in Florida

As far as I can tell, doing as advertised.

I bought two bags which was more than enough to cover the back of my 56’ home, bare wood siding recently installed. We boiled one gallon of water and then instantly mixed the powder in and had no issue dissolving like other reviews have stated. On the first pass, we followed instructions with 1 gallon water to one bag of powder for the 15% solution. One the second pass, we did as another poster suggested and mixed with half gallon of antifreeze, half gallon boiling water, one bag of powder. It instantly absorbed into to wood so much faster than the first coating. Ease of use and price of product is a win for me! Only time will tell how well this product works, but I’m hoping that I have as much success battling off termites as others have had!When I bought my home, it passed inspection for termites. In less than a year we started to find termite damage throughout the house. I used termidor foam in the house, taurus in trenches around the slab, and within 6 months found new termite damage in my shop out back, but none in the house or around the front of shop that was also treated. We redid the entire house and all buildings with the trenching and Taurus treatment and have seen no new termite damage since. Hurricane Harvey damaged siding to the home and I haven’t been able to repair this. We had an energy company test the home and found that there was tons of air leakage where the missing siding was. This was putting a strain on my AC and raising my utility bill to an astronomical size! I had enough Bead Plywood to use as siding but have been reluctant due to previous termite issues. This product, my research into it, and all of the positive reviews gave me hope. If I can use what I have, treat it with this stuff, and replace the siding and it work for a few years until I can have the entire home re-sides, then I’ll be through the roof with excitement! Only time will tell.

I think the products probably OK, but it arrived with a slit like a razor cut right through the middle of the bag. I’m guessing it’s more Amazon’s fault than the vendor’s fault.
