Abstract
Studies on boron as wood preservative against certain wood borers were carried out through three methods of application. Boron was applied against Lyctus africanus, and Sinoxylon sudanicum, through brushing, vacuum-impregnation and dipping techniques. Obtained results revealed that vacuum-impregnation of seasoned wood by 4% of boric acid equivalent (BAE) or 117 ppm of borone element is the most effective technique against wood borers. The recommended concentration gave 100% mortality for new infestation and over 3 years of protection.
