MPB-affected pine sapwood features increased permeability to preservative treatment. Selection of post-MPB lumber heavy to sapwood for preservative treatment may add value and allow access to new markets. A new process, developed in New Zealand has shown promise to deeply penetrate dry lumber with termiticides without using a pressure treating plant. Borates are one of the components used as a buffer and carrier but the levels are not necessarily sufficient to protect against Formosan termites without the carbon-based termitides in the formulation. Performance data are required to assure customers of product durability. Short lengths of heavily blue-stained post-MPB lodgepole pine lumber were pressure-treated with ACQ-D and borates targeting levels recommended for protection against attack by the Formosan subterranean termites. Additional samples were treated by the new dip-plus-kiln-conditioning process to borate levels less than recommended retentions, with and without the addition of organic termiticides. The boards were installed in field tests in Hawaii and Japan at sites with confirmed populations of Formosan subterranean termites, and will be monitored annually for termite attack to determine if the lower borate retentions with and without carbon-based termiticides are effective.
