Boric Acid Granular Powder 5 Lb. Create Your own Solution

Worked great for making homemade mosquito traps. Most mosquito-free summer yet.

Good packaging, shipped fast & good price

Best quality I have bought and it does dissolve easily.

Worked perfect for canning my apple pie filling. Sets up perfectly after cooling down, mixed in easily and couldn’t taste it all. I canned 47 quarts of pie filling with this one 5lb bag.

I originally bought this boric acid granular powder for a gardening project (the exact one is lost to time), but I’m glad I have it on hand. The granules are consistent, easy to measure, and simple to apply or dissolve, which makes it straightforward to use in small, controlled amounts. As with anything like this, I’m careful to store it safely and keep it away from kids and pets, but it’s been a useful addition to my “problem-solving” shelf in the garage. I’d buy it again the next time I need boric acid in bulk for a garden or household project.

More seriously, this is the most effective way I know to deal with Palmetto bugs. (after 40 years in Florida.) I can't stand the thought of spreading neurotoxins all around the house to deal with an annoyance. Boric Acid crystals are a better answer. This stuff mixes 3 to 1 with confectioners sugar. I went to the Dollar store, bought a plastic ketchup bottle, funneled the boric acid and confectioners sugar, shaked it up, cut the tip to a wider point and started squeezing. Behind and under the refrigerator, under every cabinet in the kitchen and bath. I found that it was effective to put a small pile (inch or two) and sweep it into the crevices. This product is a good price. It does what it is supposed to. Rule one: keep your house clean! No crumbs, specs of food, greasy water in the sink or hoarded old bags. Rule two: use this stuff. It irritakes the Palmettos exoskeleton and they head outside to bug heaven. We do not have "roaches" in the city sense, but this stuff is where you begin to turn the battle if you do. I stopped having a bug extermination company do my house every month when the serviceman refused to drink the chem juice he was spraying. Boric acid crystals have low toxicity, but keep it off your skin and away from your eyes.

Great size, perfect packaging and I will definitely buy again.

I bought this because my apartment had roaches and all of their spraying worked somewhat, but I needed something that was there all the time and not bad for your health. I spread this all over my apartment in my drawers along the lines of all the walls and I am bug free.

Bug problem at home and it was highly effective.

Best quality & quantity product at low price.
