Does Bora-Care kill adult powder post beetles? Is it safe to use in a house with pets?

We have powder post beetles in our basement, infesting the support beams. If I spray them, will it kill all the powderpost beetles and kill the hatching larvae in the future? We also have pets and want to know if we need to have them out of the house while we spray.

Answer:

Bora-Care will kill any & all powder post beetles that feed on the wood. It will not kill the larvae right when they hatch, but once they start feeding on the wood it will kill them as well. The product is safe for pets as long as used as directed. Just them keep them out of the area (not the whole house) while applying & they may return once it has dried, typically a few hours.
