Guest guest Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 Hi Ron I dusted 1 room with Roach prufe & within 2 hrs I couldn & #39;t breathe , So I soaked the room with 1 cup epsom salt & 5 cups water to dry on top of the Roach prufe like a salt dried glaze , I still gagged for 2 weeks. Then I applied he Roach prufe to my the back of my neck & the base of my spinal cord at my cockix started vibrating , I thought it was my cellphone in my back pocket vibrating , but when I reached for the phone it was not there.It kept vibrating for 3 hrs. I do use the roach prufe in un inhabited areas. I used the RP ( roache prufe in my old apt & left it with a fan running in the window , the air from the apt blowing out the fan into the window srcreen shreded the screen to strings. Rita said it will ruin & vacuum cleaner if a very fine hepa filter type isn & #39;t used . I just had to pay the landlord $60.00 for that screen. . It would be easier to heat treat to 170 degrees like zooks did with turbo heaters in the windows for 6 hrs, 3 saturdays in a row. she at least got to keep he stuff , unlike most of the rest of us who have thrown it all away. I heattreat items in a 14 gallon rubbermaid container with an insestructible vidal sasson hair dryer to 170 dgrees for 3 hrs , it works & dosent melt anything yet , I do my boots easpecially. For papers & books I use carbondioxide like the do for all our organic vegtables. , it works gret on live bug , but dosnt kills eggs I suppose . All my tax fies were a nite mare before I loaded them in to my car & ipened the valve of a 20 lb c02 tank rented from the welding shop for $5 per months . & filled for $12.68 . I keep my laptop in a 2.5 gal ziplock always , until I use it , I makes it bugless after 2 months of in & out of the gas , causing hatching & killing , hatching & re gassing , & so on & so on ..... I am afraid to heattreat a laptop , but I have an old one I am going to experiment on .Heat kills eggs they say . God bless you , Bill Ps dawn kills the bug in the bath so it can & #39;t reattach I always squit a bit when showering or bathng bicyclecowboy wrote: > > I have done site searches from this group for Boric Acid products like Roach Prufe (RP) and others like Mop Up.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 RP did seem to help a lot of folks who used it. But it did not help us and we used it heavily in our home for months everywhere. z3 > > I have done site searches from this group for Boric Acid products like Roach Prufe (RP) and others like Mop Up.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 I like and Buggerds idea of using the powders in liquid form otherwise you just destroy your lungs with powder blowing all over the place. I researched on boric acid and DE and I think DE is better the problem is harder to mix with water than boric acid. DE also comes in form of silica but I can't find the right type to spray. Please if somebody knows please help us. I remember Buggerd said it is the same type used in cedarside professional insecticide but he couldn't find the right type of silica either. > > > > I have done site searches from this group for Boric Acid products like Roach Prufe (RP) and others like Mop Up.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 I think when you mix boric acid products with water and it dries the boric acid can be blown around. Boric acid doesn't mix well or stay mixed and jams up sprayers. Ron > > > > > > I have done site searches from this group for Boric Acid products like Roach Prufe (RP) and others like Mop Up.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Ron the moppable boric acid I would let sit overnight in gallon jug. Also if you put marbles in the sprayer this helps keep it stirred more, I do this with anything I spray. Must agree the boric acid drys to a powder though.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Hi Healing hope Marbles in the bottom of the sprayer , that is brilliaint , thanks Bye , Bill ps a chapin sprayer almost always has a filter at the bottom of the pick up tube , it dosent clog easilly if the borun product is mixed in very hot water & wisked with a wooden handle as it is mixed . Chapin sprayers are sold at all Ace hardwares, & are gauranteed for life , no questions asked , ever ... , I call them & they mail me a new one it it ever breaks . , they very rarely break .Only my $180.00 metal sprayer broke. , they mailed me a new on in 4 days .. No questions asked & I got to keep the old one , which I fixed with bondo & srcew in the small hole that burst in the side . It even has an air valve to pressurize from an air compressor ....luxury spraying at it s finest ..... ( did I just say that ? oh brother I need a life, ) But, it dosent hold a candle to my wagner power painter with the tube adapeter to the 5 gallon bucket & bailing wire on the trigger propped & turned on remotely with a long extension cord to massacre the room with a blindingly dense london fog of 1 cup borax & 1/2 cup windex & 4 oz of coconut oil . Bye bye bug .... you can & #39;t even see in the room when I look in thru the window , attrition in action , its beautiful . ok , I am going looking for a life right now ..

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 DE lacks a component I think is a key reason the borates work: the borates are ionic. Boric acid is used to modulate fission in nuclear power plants. That is, the more out of control the fission, the more boric acid they use. It disrupts the flow of electrical current. If you mix a borate with H2O2, a penetrant (I think the oxidization of the skin is what allows whatever else is with it to penetrate the dermis more thoroughly), and pour it on your skin, you will feel electricity going crazy on your skin. That is not actually an increase in electrical activity, you are feeling an interruption. I know this simply because borates do not increase, they decrease electricity. It was a weird feeling I do not plan to repeat, but I wanted to know what, if it affected me, it might do to the critters. I use DE, but only for a filler. As crystalline products go in my house, the borates are king. I would be willing to try the silica, but wonder what it offers as far as properties that the borates don't? Haven't researched that other than to try and find it... love, katie From: tonysvenson <no_reply >bird mites Sent: Wed, March 24, 2010 4:56:04 AMSubject: Re: Boric Acid Warning I like and Buggerds idea of using the powders in liquid form otherwise you just destroy your lungs with powder blowing all over the place.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Hi , what would be cool is if you could possibly do an experiment with your high powered scope to see how they react with DE then compare with boric acid. That's interesting about the electrical reaction of boric acid I didn't know that. I know they go nuts when I sit in front of my puter they are reacting to the electrical field I guess. From what I was reading silica is like a drying agent so I guess it dries them out better than boric acid plus it also cuts them up. Also somebody here complained that after they sprayed a boric acid water mix and after it dried there was still dusty residue. I haven't heard any complaints like that from peeps who used Cedarcide. the main ingredient other than cedar oil is hydrated silica which is supposed to be like another form of DE only it's water soluble and when it dries there's no dust. There is also another company that uses hydrated silica mixed with some pesticide I don't remember which one. Anyway I will let you know when I find a place to buy to this stuff. I remember Lynn said it's the same sort of silica they use in shaving cream I have researched but can't figure that one out either.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Hi, Tony. I have done that--with everything in my house. I went crazy with it. I used all the milk jug caps I save for the purpose. They were laid out in rows on my workstation, and carefully poured or mixed a different substance in each, and that included all the common stuff I had around the do. Nada. Boric acid makes them dance, and they die. So if I can't tell if they are an organism or just a weird looking THING, I spray them with the bottle I keep filled with boric acid dissolved in water right by my microscope and computer. Have you looked at my youtube videos? The titles have something to do with what I used that resulted in the action I photographed. love, katie From: tonysvenson <no_reply >bird mites Sent: Thu, March 25, 2010 6:14:29 PMSubject: Re: Boric Acid Warning Hi , what would be cool is if you could possibly do an experiment with your high powered scope to see how they react with DE then compare with boric acid.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 You are right about the sprayers. And, the water wicks the boric acid down into the carpet fibers. The only reason boric acid in carpet has to be replaced twice a year, which is how often I do it, is that we "walk it out." As we step on (crush) the fibers, the boric acid powders to the carpet backing. It doesn't have to be replaced on my walls. True, it is possible that the streaks may powder slightly, putting a minute and to me undetectable touch of boric acid into the air,however I never smell it, and it tastes metallic, so I would PROBABLY taste it when I breathe. Also, when the water evaporates, it leaves a dry white patch on hard surfaces. There is something a little bit sticky about boric acid that has been wet, evidently, though I can't tell by feeling it, because it is not the easiest thing to try to wash off a boric acid spot. good points, Ron, love, katie From: bicyclecowboy <bicyclecowboy@...>bird mites Sent: Wed, March 24, 2010 1:53:35 PMSubject: Re: Boric Acid Warning I think when you mix boric acid products with water and it dries the boric acid can be blown around.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 Lynn, thanks for this link. I don't know if this is the same stuff they use in cedarcide or not. I did a search on silica and pesticides and I can't find anything these companies are keeping their sources really secret. Then I did a wikipedia search they don't say anything about insecticides in their article, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrated_silica This is driving me nuts. It shouldn't be so hard to find out where these companies are getting silica and what type theyre using.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 I'm just jumping in here after being away for a couple of months, so maybe this doesn't fit the discussion....but " silica " is essential to normal bodily functions. Although it is a " building block " in Staninger's view, we can't do without it.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 You said you don't smell it or taste it but that doesn't mean it's not having an effect. For example peeps can sit in a closed garage with the engine on and before they know it they're dead from carbon monoxide poisoning, even though they didn't smell or taste anything first. Or peeps can drink water with fluoride and yea, you can't smell it or taste it but over times it causes problems. So what I'm trying to say is just because you don't smell or taste the acid doesn't mean it's not getting absorbed into the lungs and body and whatnot. especially in your case where it's been in your environment for a long time and is so thick you can barely see in the mirror. I am not an expert I not even that smart but this is just common sense.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 Just found this, Tony. sends my mail to various folders based on filters I've set up and I lose some important mail that way. I don't have boric acid all over my house in powder form, not so I can see it. The only visible powder in my house is a mixture of epsom salt and DE. I have a healthy respect for the neurotoxic effect of boric acid and treat it accordingly.
