Expert Borate Treatment in Clinton, MS

Borate treatment is one of the most reliable ways to protect the wood in your Clinton home from termites, carpenter ants, wood-boring beetles, and decay fungi. Green Leaf applies a borate solution directly to bare wood surfaces, where it soaks deep into the fibers and creates a long-lasting barrier that wood-destroying pests cannot cross. When insects feed on treated wood, the borate disrupts their ability to digest food, stopping the infestation at the source. Clinton's humid climate creates conditions where wood moisture levels rise, which can make untreated structural wood more vulnerable to both insect activity and fungal decay. Borate treatment addresses both threats in a single application. It works on framing lumber, floor joists, wall studs, and other interior wood components. The solution has low toxicity to people and pets, making it a practical choice for occupied homes. If you own a Clinton home with untreated structural wood, contact Green Leaf to schedule a borate treatment assessment.

I messaged Mr. Michael at 10:00 PM about a pest issue after being out of town for a week, and he had a technician at my house by 9:00 the next morning! Anthony was fantastic—professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to answer all of my questions. The quick response and excellent customer service were truly impressive. 10/10 recommend!

Prompt, friendly, and reasonable! Michael responded to my inquiry about termite extermination within minutes on a Sunday and was at my house first thing Monday morning. He quickly diagnosed the issue and relieved me of my concerns without trying to upsell me on anything. Ms. Gina gave me a call to schedule the treatment and was the sweetest. These folks are who you need.

I wanted to wait a few months before leaving my review. The guy Spencer who came out was very professional and listened to every concern I had. He was very knowledgeable and did an amazing job at targeting all the areas we were concerned about. I would highly recommend Green Leaf (Spencer). He was so sweet and took his time to make sure he had tackled the infestation issue that we had. I will be using them again soon.
