Building, Lambton Quay,' WELLINGTON, N.Z. why SERVICE is sometimes necessary after treatment If Boracure treatment is any good why does borer sometimes reappear T Here is the answer: I A Boracure treatment usually ■ consists of (a) flood spraying end injecting the entire understructure'(which is very vulnerable to attack) and (b) injecting and otherwise treating infected parts elsewhere. However, there are obviously hundreds of places In a house which appear borerfree and thus do. not receive treatment, such as the skirting board shown alongside. 9 But in some of these ‘sound’ looking places borer grubs may be busy beneath the surface. 9 Eventually these hidden borer ** grubs change to beetles and •morga from flight holes, this being the first sign of their presence. Because of the extended life cycle of the borer, these flight holes may not appear for some years. It is always difficult to treat surfaces that are varnished, painted, papered or otherwise covered. Apart from ripping out boards and thoroughly spraying the cavities the best way is to pressure inject through flight holes as they appear. That is why Boracure recommend their Insulation Contract which guarantees periodic inspection and treatment for 5 years (or longer if desired). Insist on genuine Boracure. ioja SOUND-LOOKING VARNISHED SKIRTING BOARD SHOWS NO SIGN OF BORER NOT?: CRACK AT >QIN i below: same board CUT OPEN SHOWS HOW BORER CAN BE BUSY UNDERNEATH VARNISHED SURFACE Eggi laid in unprotected crack hatch into grubs which burrow Grubs spreading to w*U timbers Grub hat changed to beetle ju below surface and is ready to gnaw its way out #5 E IN TIME, UNSIGHTLY FLIGHT HOLES MAR PREVIOUSLY SO U N D-L OO KI N G SURFACE Local Agent: N.
