Product Q&A

Answer:

Termidor SC when applied to wood would only last about 90 days and would not be used as pre-treatment for wood. 

Bora-Care is usually the preferred choice for pre-treating wood that is exposed and it is raw wood you are treating, meaning it is not painted, stained, or sealed, it is just normal wood.  Bora-Care is made only for wood.  Bora-Care is sprayed evenly over all exposed surfaces of the wood and actually penetrates through the entire piece of wood.  For frame up, you would apply to the bottom 2 feet of wood. We also have a great article here about Barrier and Soil Treatments for termites that might be helpful.
