Nibor-D Green Pest Management Pesticide
Part of a Green Pest Management Program
NiBor-D is a borate dust that provides an inexpensive and flexible means of getting to hard-to-reach areas. It can be used as a dust or mixed as a liquid, even in a liquid mop solution. It is ideal for inaccessible areas where pests hide, such as cracks and crevices, attics, wall voids, around plumbing penetrations and so on. It can be used as a complement to Niban or Niban-FG without any bait contamination and does not cake or corrode metals, as boric acid does.
Broad spectrum insecticide and fungicide.
Kills and prevents carpenter ants, crickets, cockroaches, silverfish, earwigs, boxelder bugs, cluster flies, centipedes, millipedes, ants, mildew and fungi.
Apply in dust or liquid form, including in a mop solution.
Indoor/outdoor use
Created with a concern for the environment
Effective, green product for use with Green Pest Management programs
Active ingredient is a borate mineral salt.
No known resistance
NiBor-D is a green pesticide that can be used in Green Pest Management programs. As a borate-based product, NiBor-D has a very low mammalian toxicity and targets specific pests. This reduces the impact on people, pets and non-target insects beneficial to the environment (such as butterflies and honeybees). Also, NiBor-D is applied only where needed, further reducing any unnecessary impact to the rest of the environment. And since it is long-lasting, less product is required for a successful and effective Green Pest Management program.
NiBor-D’s effect on target pests comes from the way the boron molecules in its active ingredient interfere with a pest’s metabolism. Because pests cannot excrete excess boron as humans can, the boron builds up in their systems and ultimately interrupts the normal chemical process of transforming food into energy. So, by ingesting NiBor-D, the insect is unable to extract nutrition from its food and effectively starves to death. Humans, pets and other living things don’t share the risk because they are able to excrete excess boron from their bodies.
