Whether you're dealing with pesky insects or looking to improve your soil's nutrient profile, this boric acid powder is a versatile solution.

Benefits of Boric Acid

Boric acid is known for its numerous benefits in gardening and pest management. It helps improve plant growth in alkaline and boron-deficient soils, correcting issues such as leaf mottling, yellowing, and stunted growth. The fully soluble nature of this product allows for easy application in fertigation and hydroponics systems, ensuring that your plants receive the nutrients they need for optimal growth.

Directions for Use

When using boric acid as a trace element, it is crucial to apply it when there is a deficiency in Boron (B). Signs of deficiency include mottled, yellow, and small leaves. For best results, apply boric acid in Spring, Summer, and Autumn to fruit trees either as a foliar or soil application. To prepare a soluble application, dissolve 10g of boric acid in 9L of water. For soil application, this solution should be applied to 10 sqm of soil once every three months. For foliar application, ensure to spray your plants thoroughly, covering the tops and bottoms of leaves, stems, and the top of the soil until the solution is dripping from the plant. For dry application, use 5-10g per 10sqm, but avoid applying it to acidic soils.

Pest Control with Boric Acid

Boric acid is a non-toxic option for pest control, making it safe for use in homes with pets. It is important to use it responsibly, creating baits that are placed out of reach of animals. When used correctly, boric acid can effectively eliminate pests by dehydrating them. The key to successful pest control is to ensure that the pests consume the boric acid, leading to their demise.

Using Boric Acid for Cockroaches

Cockroaches are notorious for their cleaning habits, which can be exploited when using boric acid powder. Lightly dust the powder on surfaces where cockroaches are found. As they clean their feet, they will ingest the boric acid and ultimately die. It is essential to apply the powder sparingly, as too much can deter the pests from coming into contact with it. Granular boric acid is not effective for this method; it must be in powder form.

Ant Control with Bait Method

Ant infestations can be effectively managed using boric acid. To create a bait, mix the boric acid powder with sugar at a concentration of 5% or less. Too much boric acid can repel ants, so it's crucial to find the right balance. Add small amounts of water to create a paste-like texture and apply it around areas where ants are active. The ants will consume the bait and carry it back to their colony, leading to the elimination of the entire colony within hours.

Other Pests

Boric acid is effective against various pests that clean themselves regularly and do not have piercing mouthparts. However, it is important to note that boric acid will not kill bed bugs or pests that feed on blood or plant juices. For best results, target pests that are not in their larval stage and ensure proper application techniques.

Grain Measurements and Particle Size Distribution

The particle size distribution of this boric acid powder is crucial for its effectiveness. The product retains a maximum of 4% on a 1.000mm (18 mesh) sieve and passes through a 0.063mm (230 mesh) sieve with a maximum of 4%. This granule size ensures optimal solubility and effectiveness in both pest control and plant growth applications.
