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!

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.
