    Q
    Can this product be used on finished hardwood floors and cabinets
    I can't believe the damage these beetles have done to my home. Idk how or where they came from but it appears I have wood boring and carpet beetles. I have been fighting cloth moths for a year. Used a professional pest control company that would come in and out so quick I could see they weren't using enough chemicals, after 5 months I had to let him go. I've lost most of my clothes, linens and some furniture, now I have got panty moths. I've spent thousands and seems all I do is laundry and clean, can't eat for fear of eggs and larvae. My car is infested too, i'm really hanging by a thread, these things have robed me from my life. Please advise me to the products I need, my house is quite large 2 story, Several rooms are not used, just storage. I think maybe trying to salvage some clothes and furniture is the why they took over. I would appreciate any advise you have for me, i'm so tired I feel like quiting and sell out, but know I'll take em with me. Desperate......Kathy

    Totality Wood Treatment is intended to be applied only to bare wood, plywood, particle board or other cellulose building materials in the absense of paint, stains or sealers. Such materials will prevent Totality Wood Treatment from properly adhering to cellulose surfaces. Unfortunately, we are not aware of a product that will treat wood that has been painted, stained, or sealed in any way. The only effective means of control boring beetles would be to said the finish off and then apply the Totality Wood Treatment. As for the Carpet Beetles we would recommend reading our Carpet Beetle Control article and take a look at the Nyguard Plus. Apply with a sweeping motion as a surface spray to carpet, rugs, closets, baseboards, upholstered furniture, and around edges of carpet.

  • Asked by Cody from Memphis, Tn

    Q
    Does Totality Wood Treatment provide moisture control?
    Can it be used in crawl spaces and such to prevent fungi and other similar wood destroying organisms?
    A

    Totality Wood Treatment is designed to protect raw wood from wood-destroying insects such as termites, but it does not protect from wood decay fungus or mold. Boracare or Timbor would be a more appropriate product to help protect from wood decay fungus. Keep in mind that wood treatment is not a substitute for any measures required to reduce humidity or otherwise correct moisture conditions in a crawl space or other areas.

    Can Totality Wood Treatment be used on bare wood in homes prior to being sealed with drywall?
    I have to replace my drywall due to flooding. I want to treat the studs and plywood exterior walls before re insulating and installing drywall.
    A

    Totality Wood Treatment is designed to be applied to raw wood/lumber in a structure or not. You can make the application by foaming, spraying, or brushing on. Allow the wood to dry for at least 72 hours before applying drywall.
