Product Description:

400g Boric Acid Powder High Purity Fully Soluble Granule - Pest Control for Ants and Cockroaches

The composition of our Boric Acid is guaranteed to be more than 99.9% H3BO3 and is fully soluble, making it perfect for hydroponics pest control and various other applications.

Benefits and Uses of Boric Acid:

  • Improves Plant Growth: Ideal for alkaline and boron-deficient soils.
  • Corrects Deficiencies: Helps with leaf mottling, yellowing, and small leaves.
  • Fully Soluble: Suitable for fertigation and hydroponics.
  • Insecticide: Effective for controlling ants, cockroaches, and other pests.

Directions For Use:

As a Trace Element:

  • Application: Apply boric acid when there is a deficiency in Boron (B), indicated by mottled, yellow, and small leaves.
  • Seasons: Apply in Spring, Summer, and Autumn to fruit trees as a foliar or soil application.

Soluble Application:

  • Mixing: Dissolve 10g in 9L of water.
  • Soil Application: Apply this solution to 10 sqm of soil once every three months.
  • Foliar Application: Spray plants thoroughly, covering tops and bottoms of leaves, stems, and soil surface. Ensure the solution drips from the plant when finished.

Dry Application:

  • Rate: Apply at the rate of 5-10g per 10sqm.
  • Avoid: Do not apply to acidic soils.

Pest Control:

Safe for Mammals:

  • Non-toxic in Small Quantities: Passes through the system without harm if consumed in small amounts.

Home Use:

  • Pets: Make bait and place it out of reach of pets to avoid gastrointestinal symptoms.
  • Powder Use: Place powder in areas where pets will not get it on their feet or bodies.

Cockroach Control:

  • Dry Application: Lightly place boric acid powder on surfaces where cockroaches are found. They will consume the powder and die.
  • Granular vs. Powder: Use powder for best results. Granular boric acid is less effective.

Ant Control:

  • Bait Method: Mix boric acid with sugar at a 5% or less concentration. Higher concentrations can be used for ants specifically.
  • Application: Add water to create a paste. Apply the paste around areas where ants are found. The ants will carry the bait back to the colony, eradicating it.

Other Pests:

  • Effective Against: Bugs that clean themselves regularly, are not in the larva stage, and do not have piercing mouthparts.
  • Not Effective Against: Bed bugs or bugs that feed on blood or plant juices.

Grain Measurements Particle Size Distribution:

  • Retained on 1.000mm (18 mesh) sieve: Max 4%
