Can I use Timbor in the rafters?

I have dry wood termites in the eaves and attic rafters. I live in Southern California and the termites are above the master bath and in the eaves near the garage.

Answer:

Timbor is a great product, but it does not penetrate or last as long as another product made by the same company called Bora-CareBora-Care is the best wood treatment product available because it penetrates all the way through a piece of wood where Timbor will only penetrate the outer coating.  If you have older wood then you should always use Bora-Care. Bora-Care will also stay in the wood forever, preventing any new infestations for years to come.
