We last bombed our place in October and we haven't seen any bora in the house so they do work and this is the time they are flying. If any bora has gotten into the wood the bomb will kill them.]]> Wed, 10 Jan 2007 19:21:51 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5187&PID=100137&title=argh-help#100137 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5187&PID=100084&title=argh-help#100084 Author: AnnC

wonderful I will do that - might have to just go on a shopping trip (oh what a shame ) to kill a few hours... I have rung Kiwicare (who make the bombs etc..) and their chemist is getting back to me. AS I have stored the cot (in peices) in Rhyley's room for the past two months want to make sure it hasn't spread to our other woodwork. so will go down to M10 and buy one today and go shopping tomorrow (or friday).

Thanks]]> Wed, 10 Jan 2007 16:14:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5187&PID=100084&title=argh-help#100084 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5187&PID=100059&title=argh-help#100059 Author: mummy_becks

We also used the yellow bora spray on a few pieces in the house and that has worked as well.]]> Wed, 10 Jan 2007 15:29:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5187&PID=100059&title=argh-help#100059 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5187&PID=100058&title=argh-help#100058 Author: mummy_becks

I can help. The yellow cans that a bug bombs work great. Get 2 and set up the cot in the room you are going to have it in. Cover everything up other that the cot and let them off. They only take 3 hours so if you can leave the house for that amount of time. Afterwards just wipe the cot down with a dampish cloth and vaccum the floors after taking the covers off everything else. After that you should have no probs. We have a 1920's house and have had an attack of bora and since letting the bombs off had had no problems.]]> Wed, 10 Jan 2007 15:29:00 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5187&PID=100058&title=argh-help#100058 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5187&PID=100056&title=argh-help#100056 Author: kebakat

might have to check with a professional about the bombs but i would think if you used one, then it killed it all then give it a damn good cleaning it would be ok? maybe?]]> Wed, 10 Jan 2007 15:25:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5187&PID=100056&title=argh-help#100056 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5187&PID=100050&title=argh-help#100050 Author: AnnC

Just checked my cot that has been stored in the shed for at least 7 years has bora in it. How can I get rid of it? We have a 1930's house with lots of unbora rimu wood in it and I certainly don't want it to spread to the rest of the wood.]]> Wed, 10 Jan 2007 15:20:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5187&PID=100048&title=argh-help#100048
