I had my stuff closed up for almost 3 weeks now. The great depresssion made me cancel my bi-monthly camping trip.
Came in to use the A/C & get away from my wife, the heat & clean weapons.
I go wings & things like crazy! terminite poop all over the tile floor, Bodies in the sink & toilet like crazy!!!!!!
Bottom line is I got pests, any good cures that are Kalifornia legal?
I tried kerozene in some areas & it worked but that ain't a good thing I don't think for flammability.
Wait a minute, what am I insured for?
OK, this sounds a bit crazy but I have a popular mechanix from 1937. There is a artical about fumigating chicken coops using the exhaust from your car. It always stuck in my mind. If you could tent the old clipper, open all the doors and windows up, fire up the thing and let it idle the carbon monoxide would wipe out the little critters. How it would make it smell afterwards is unknown.
The best solution I have found is powdered BORIC ACID. Order you a couple of pounds on EBay.
Thanks! Boric Acid, I'll try it, how do you apply it, it's probably a powder. I'd do the exhaust thing but my wife is way to sensitive to smells, chances are it would never go away enough for her.
What I did try was some Citra-solve aka D'limonene, it';s orange oil and I used to use it in my carpet cleaning preconditioner mix but it really is some nasty stuff IMO. I used a dental syringe and applied it to certain areas but need to deliver it to areas into the wood. I have seen some dead ones so maybe it's working. The new termite commercials claim they are using the stuff now.
