ABSTRACT:
The invention provides methods for suppressing the degradation of wood, wood products, and wooden structures due to infestation by wood-boring organisms, by use of a polyurea composition. The invention also provides for wood, wood products, and wood structures that are resistant to degradation due to borer infestation by use of a polyurea composition.
