Is this appropriate for antique furniture?

Good luck!

Question 3

Can this be used on peach tree borers that have infested a tree?

Accepted Answer

Finding this Q a bit late, but for sake of others with fruit and citrus tree concerns: I am fairly certain Termidor instructions say not to use within a trees drip area (branch radius) and it is a toxic poison so you wouldn't want to to eat any fruit from a tree treated with it. Consider cedar mulching a ring around it or mixing something like diatomaceous earth with your soil as well as bait stations nearby could be an effective way of dealing with that situation.

Question 4

I have redwood fence posts with dry rot. Would this be effective in killing/stopping the rot?

Accepted Answer

Hello, No it really wouldn't do any thing for that.
