Orthoboric acid? Is that a specialty product?

I got a 1-lb container of 100% boric acid for an ant infestation a couple of years ago for $2.00 at either Family Dollar or Dollar General.

That is what the ORTHO Company names boric acid so they can retail it at 5X-10X cost.
See, chemistry classes are saving $$ too.

Boric acid cuts the little critters to pieces.

I was wondering the same thing. Also typically available for cheap at your local hardware store.
