Mike from Pasadena, Ca writes

Can I use Bora-Care on a painted porch post & railing that has termite dropping below if I power wash it first?

The porch post already has cracks in it and some of the wood next to it sounds hallow. Will Bora Care still penetrate into the cracks even if the wood is painted, but is slightly cracking & exposed?

Answer:

No, for Bora-Care to work properly, it would need to be applied to raw wood only with no paint, stain or finish on it. Please be sure to review the product label for more information and complete application instructions. 

Instead of Bora Care, if you are unable to strip the paint, you may want to consider using a product like Jecta into inject into the wood. You may view the product label here.
