Moth
control in Carpets and Fabrics Borax
is a specially formulated Boron based compound dissolved in only in water. It
contains no solvents or additives of any kind. This product is designed to penetrate
into the wool and hay where the insects live and breed and into wood, where woodworm
live and breed. There are many unpleasant chemical insect and woodworm treatment
products on the market today, but be careful because many based on hazardous chemicals
that evaporate into your rooms - into the air that you breathe. The active Borate
in Borax does not evaporate, so remains where you want it - inside the wool, hay
or wood. Borax will not lose its effectiveness, even if vacuuming occurs. Female
insects lay their eggs in carpets, carpet backing, fabrics, insulation and bare
timber surfaces. These eggs hatch into a small worm like larvae. Insect larvae
then feed on the wool, hay or wood treated with Boron based Borax. They never
reach the adult stage. Borax is designed to kill any insect larvae that eat into
the wool, hay or wood, preventing infestation and future damage. As
long as label safety directions are followed, there should be no harmful effects
to the people or pets in the house. Borax
is specially formulated to dry dust-free and there is no clean up needed after
treatment. It is a true solution in water: no added chemicals, solvents or dyes.
Flea
control in Carpets and Fabrics This
product is designed to penetrate into the nap of carpets where the fleas live
and breed and into wood, where woodworm live and breed. There are many unpleasant
chemical flea and woodworm treatment products on the market today, but be careful
because many based on hazardous chemicals that evaporate into your rooms - into
the air that you breathe. The active Borate in Borax does not evaporate, so remains
where you want it - inside the carpet, fabric or wood. Borax will not lose its
effectiveness, even if vacuuming occurs. Female
fleas lay their eggs on pets, carpets and furniture. These eggs hatch into a small
worm like larvae. Flea larvae then feed on the Boron based Ultra 12. They never
reach the adult stage. Borax is designed to kill any flea larvae that are laid
in the house by pet's fleas. However, pets need to be treated on a regular basis
to ensure they are flea-free, using approved animal treatments. As
long as label safety directions are followed, there should be no harmful effects
to the people in the house or the pets. Borax
is specially formulated to dry dust-free and there is no clean up needed after
treatment. It is a true solution in water: no added chemicals, solvents or dyes. Click

Application
Method Important
- always test a small patch of carpet or upholstery, in a non visible area, and
allow to dry, to ensure that your fabrics will not be damaged by a water based
product. Carpet and fabric treatments with chemicals of any kind are not recommended
for homes with infants. Carpets:
Vacuum all carpets thoroughly and dispose of the bag. If using a bagless vacuum
cleaner wash the container and clean the filters thoroughly using Borax solution.
If possible clean the carpets using a carpet cleaning machine and vac dry. Apply
Borax to cleaned carpets only. Apply directly on carpets where pets frequently
traffic or sleep at a rate of 1 litre per 4 square metres. Apply the liquid using
either a carpet shampooing machine, a hand spray pump or a nylon brush. Keep unprotected
people, pets and children out the room for 1 hour, or until the carpets are completely
dry, whichever is the longer. Wait 4 to 5 days before vacuuming. Allow 3 to five
weeks for maximum flea control. Do not reapply in less than 12 months - the product
remains permanently within the carpet pile. Note: If an existing high adult flea
population makes it desirable, apply a conventional pesticide designed to kill
adult fleas, before using this product, to reduce the adult population. Upholstery:
Remove lose cushions. Apply Borax sparingly with a spray applicator or soft brush.
Allow to dry fully before replacing cushions. Check the manufacturers instructions
regarding the cushion fill and washing - Borax can be applied to covers or complete
cushions if washing is permitted. Guarantee Property
Repair Systems guarantees that within 6 weeks of treatment your flea and moth
problem will be under control, provided that you follow the directions above and
regularly shampoo your pet. Borax
will NOT kill fleas on the pet, but only when the fleas jump off of the pet into
the carpet and lay their eggs. However, some types of flea will stay on the pet
and seldom jump off. Only regular shampooing of the pet with an approved animal
shampoo will insure it will stay flea free. If
you have questions, feel free to call 01626 331351. Ready
to Use - 1 litre or 5 litres of Borax - already dissolved in water at 5% concentration.
