NBS 30
TIME RELEASE INSECT REPELLENT ADDITIVE
FOR EXTERIOR STAINS AND PAINTS
WHAT IS NBS-30 PAINT ADDITIVE?
NBS-30 is an insect repellent paint and stain additive designed for use in any oil or water based exterior coating. It will repel ants, cockroaches, beetles, mites, spiders, fleas, ticks, silverfish, dirt daubers, wasps, ladybugs and carpenter bees..
HOW DOES NBS-30 WORK?
NBS-30 is a natural insect repellent. The product’s ingredients are biologically natural and derived from plant extracts. It is exempt from EPA Regulation under the Federal Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). When used as directed it is non phytotoxic and will not harm plants or turf. It is safe to use where pets or birds have contact and has demonstrated extremely low mammalian toxicity. The odor produced by the NBS-30 is what repels insects.
DOES NBS-30 KILL CARPENTER BEES?
No! NBS-30 is an insect repellent
and not an insecticide. It runs off Carpenter Bees but does not
kill them. Before using NBS 30 we recommend that existing
carpenter bee infestations be dealt with. You can resolve
existing Carpenter Bee infestations by following these steps.
- Acquire these materials: A can of WD 40, a roll of aluminum
foil, and a tube of log caulk such as Energy Seal or 509 Super
Caulk.
- Insert the red applicator tip into the spray nozzle of WD 40.
- Spray WD 40 into each Carpenter Bee hole until it is bubbling
out. This will coat existing larvae so that they do not get air
and will die. If you happen to shoot WD 40 into a hole with a
female carpenter bee in it, the bee will usually stumble out of
its hole and fall to the ground. At this time the bee can be
safely killed.
- Take a piece of aluminum foil and roll it up into a tight
ball about 3/8” in diameter. Put the aluminum foil on to the tip
of a screwdriver and stuff it into the Carpenter Bee hole as far
possible. Any larvae that you did not get with the WD 40 will
not be able to get past the aluminum foil once they hatch.
- Caulk each Carpenter Bee hole with log caulk.
- THE ABOVE PROCEDURE MUST BE FOLLOWED WITH ALL EXISTING
CARPENTER BEE HOLES TO ELIMINATE THE BEE INFESTATION.

HOW DO I APPLY NBS-30?
Add the entire contents of a one pint can of NBS-30 to a five-gallon bucket of exterior paint or stain. When treating just a gallon of exterior paint add NBS 30 at a rate of 3.2 ounces per gallon of coating. Mix thoroughly and stir every 15 minutes to ensure its uniform dispersion. Apply coatings according to directions on the paint/stain bucket. Brush, spray or roller applications are suitable.
HOW DOES NBS-30
AFFECT EXTERIOR COATINGS?
Sheen, curing time and luster of the coating may be changed
slightly by addition of NBS-30. Color may also be affected very
slightly, and would be most noticeable in pure white paint.

CAN NBS-30 BE USED AS AN INSECT REPELLENT
WITHOUT MIXING THE PRODUCT WITH A PAINT OR STAIN?
Yes! NBS-30 can also be mixed with water and sprayed on any
stained or painted wood surface. Mix a one pint container of NBS
30 with five gallons of water and apply the product with pump
sprayer. When this mixture is applied to wood in an exposed area
it is subject to being washed off in a heavy rain. Reapply as
necessary every 30 to 60 days. NBS-30 works best when used as a
stain or paint additive because the coating locks the product on
to the wood surface.

commercial honeybee farming. This product is toxic to fish, as well as
insects. Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing. Avoid breathing
