ʻO ka waika Boric he mineral laha loa i loaʻa ma nā ʻano kaiapuni, mai ke kai a i ka lepo. Eia naʻe, ke kamaʻilio mākou e pili ana i ka wai boric i hoʻohana ʻia ma ke ʻano helāʻau lāʻau lāʻauke kamaʻilio nei mākou i ka hui kemika i unuhi ʻia a hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻia mai nā waihona waiwai boron kokoke i nā ʻāina pele a me nā loko maloʻo. ʻOiai ua hoʻohana nui ʻia ka waikawa boric ma ke ʻano he herbicide, ʻike ʻia kona ʻano mineral i nā mea kanu he nui a kokoke i nā huaʻai āpau.
Ma kēia ʻatikala, e ʻimi mākou pehea e hakakā ai ka waikawa boric i nā mea ʻino, pehea e hoʻohana ai me ka palekana, a me nā mea hou aʻe, i alakaʻi ʻia e ʻelua mau entomologists i hōʻoia ʻia, ʻo Kauka Wyatt West a me Kauka Nancy Troiano, a me Bernie Holst III, Luna Nui o Horizon Pest Control ma Midland Park, New Jersey.
ʻAka Boriche hui pū ʻia me ka boron elemental. Hoʻohana pinepine ʻia ia i nā pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, preservatives, a me nā mea pale ahi. I kekahi manawa kapa ʻia ka waika orthoboric, waika hydroboric, a i ʻole borate.
Ma ke ʻano he insecticide, hoʻohana mua ʻia ia e pepehi i nā moho, nā ʻupena, nā iʻa kālā, nā nalo, a me nā ʻauʻau. Ma ke ʻano he herbicide, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka pale ʻana i ka mold, fungi, a me kekahi mau nāhelehele.
Ke hoʻopili ʻia nā iniseti me ka waika boric, pili ia i ko lākou kino. Hoʻokomo lākou i ka wai boric, hoʻomaʻemaʻe iā lākou iho. Hoʻopilikia ka waika Boric i kā lākou hana hoʻoheheʻe ʻana a hoʻopilikia i kā lākou ʻōnaehana nerve. No ka mea e koi ana ka waika boric i kekahi manawa e hōʻiliʻili ai i loko o ke kino o ka pepeke, hiki i kona hopena ke lawe i kekahi mau lā a i ʻole ka lōʻihi o ka hoʻomaka ʻana.
Hiki i ka ʻakika Boric ke pepehi i nā arthropod e ʻai ana iā ia (nā nalo, nā spiders, ticks, millipedes). Eia nō naʻe, ʻai wale ʻia ka waikawa boric e nā arthropod e hoʻomaʻamaʻa iā lākou iho, no laila ʻaʻole pono ia i nā spiders, millipedes, a me nā ticks. Hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia ka waika Boric e ʻoki i ka exoskeleton o nā iniseti, e hoʻonāwaliwali i ko lākou hiki ke mālama i ka wai. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo West inā ʻo ia ka pahuhopu, aia nā ala ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi.
Hiki mai nā huahana Boric acid i nā ʻano like ʻole, me nā pauka, nā gels, a me nā papa. "Hoʻohana pinepine ʻia ka waikawa Boric i nā pesticides," i hoʻohui ʻia ai ʻo West.
ʻO ka mua, e hoʻoholo inā e hoʻohana ʻoe i ka gel, ka pauka, nā papa, a i ʻole nā pahele. Pili kēia i ka ʻano pest, a me ka wahi a me nā kūlana kaiapuni kahi āu e hoʻohana ai i ka pesticide.
He mea koʻikoʻi e heluhelu a hahai pono i nā ʻōlelo kuhikuhi. He mea ʻawaʻawa ka waika Boric a hiki ke hoʻopōʻino i nā kānaka a me nā holoholona. "ʻO ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka dosage ʻaʻole ia he hopena maikaʻi aʻe," wahi a Holster. No nā hopena maikaʻi loa, he mea nui e:
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Holster, "E hoʻohana i ka noʻonoʻo maʻamau. Mai hoʻohana i nā huahana ma waho ma mua o ka ua. Eia kekahi, mai kāpī a hoʻohana i nā huahana granular kokoke i nā kino wai, no ka mea hiki ke lawe ʻia e nā au, a hiki i ka wai ua ke lawe i nā huahana granular i loko o ka wai."
ʻAe a ʻaʻole. Ke hoʻohana pono ʻia, hiki i ka wai boric ke lilo i mea hoʻomalu pest control, akā ʻaʻole pono e hoʻomoʻa ʻia a ʻai ʻia paha.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo West, "ʻO ka waikawa Boric kekahi o nā pesticides palekana loa i loaʻa. Pono mākou e hoʻomanaʻo, ʻo ka hopena, he mea ʻawaʻawa nā pesticides āpau, akā liʻiliʻi ka pilikia ke hoʻohana pono ʻia. E hahai mau i nā ʻōlelo kuhikuhi! Mai lawe i nā pilikia kūpono ʻole."
'Ōlelo Aʻo: Inā ua pili ʻoe i kēia huahana, e hahai i nā kuhikuhi ma ka lepili a kāhea aku i kahi kikowaena hoʻomalu lāʻau make ma 1-800-222-1222 no ka ʻōlelo aʻo hou aku.
He ʻoiaʻiʻo kēia. "Loaʻa maoli ka waikawa Boric i loko o ka lepo, ka wai, a me nā mea kanu, no laila ma ia ʻano he huahana ''ōmaʻomaʻo' ia," wahi a Holster. "Akā naʻe, ma kekahi mau ʻano a me nā dosages, hiki ke hōʻeha i nā mea kanu."
ʻOiai e komo maoli nā mea kanu i ka liʻiliʻi o ka wai boric, ʻo ka piʻi liʻiliʻi o nā pae lepo hiki ke make iā lākou. No laila, hiki i ka hoʻohui ʻana i ka waikawa boric i nā mea kanu a i ʻole ka lepo ke hoʻopau i ke koena o ka waikawa boric i ka lepo ma ke ʻano he mea kanu a me ka herbicide.
He mea pono e hoʻomaopopo ʻaʻole hoʻokuʻu ka waika boric i nā kinoea ʻino i ka lewa. Ua manaʻo ʻia he mea ʻona haʻahaʻa loa i ka hapa nui o nā manu, nā iʻa, a me nā amphibians.
"He mea maʻamau kēia no nā pesticides," wahi a West. "Akā naʻe, ʻaʻole au e hoʻohana i nā pūhui i loaʻa nā derivatives boron me ka ʻole.
Inā ʻoe e ʻimi nei i kahi ʻokoʻa i nā pesticides, nui nā koho eco-friendly. ʻO nā aila pono e like me ka honua diatomaceous, neem, peppermint, thyme, a me ka rosemary, a me ka soap insecticidal homemade, he mau ala kūlohelohe ia e hakakā ai i nā mea ʻino. Eia kekahi, ʻo ka mālama ʻana i kahi māla maikaʻi e kōkua pū me ka mālama ʻana i nā pest, no ka mea, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka ulu ʻana o nā mea kanu e paipai i ka hana ʻana i nā kemika-paʻi pepeke.
ʻO nā ʻano hana ʻino ʻē aʻe e pili ana i ka puhi ʻana i ka lāʻau, ka pīpī ʻana i ka vīnega ma nā ala ʻanuʻu, a i ʻole ka ninini ʻana i ka wai paila ma luna o nā pūnana ant.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo West, "ʻelua mau mea ʻokoʻa.
ʻOiaʻiʻo, akā no ke aha e pilikia ai? I ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka waikawa boric i ka home, pono ia e hui pū me kahi mea e huki ai i nā pests. ʻO ia ke kumu e hui pū ai kekahi poʻe me ka pauda kō a i ʻole nā mea ʻē aʻe.
"Manaʻo wau e kūʻai i kahi lure mākaukau ma mua o ka hoʻopau ʻana i ka manawa e hana ai iā ʻoe iho," wahi a West. "ʻAʻole au i ʻike i ka nui o ka manawa a me ke kālā āu e mālama ai ma ka hana ʻana iā ʻoe iho."
Eia kekahi, hiki ke kūʻē i ke ʻano hana hewa. "Inā ʻaʻole pololei ke ʻano, ʻaʻole ia e hoʻopōmaikaʻi i kekahi mau pests. ʻOiai hiki ke hoʻoponopono i kekahi mau pilikia, ʻaʻole loa ia e hoʻopau loa i nā mea pest," wahi a Kauka Nancy Troiano, he mea hoʻomaʻamaʻa i hōʻoia ʻia e ka papa.
He palekana, maʻalahi ka hoʻohana ʻana, a loaʻa i nā ʻano kikoʻī, e hoʻopau ana i nā pilikia hui.
ʻAe, akā ma nā mea liʻiliʻi wale nō. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ABC Termite Control he ʻoi aku ka palekana o ka wai boric ma mua o ka nui o nā insecticides kemika wikiwiki no ka mea ʻaʻole ia e pepehi koke i nā mea ʻeha.
