Hi Linda
I have never heard of having to have the soil acidic for borers to do
well. I live in the midwest where I think the soil is naturally about
neutral or a little less. I just called the extension service and the
soil here is about 6.5. I can drive around town and see iris borer
damage in most people's irises. Maybe this is low enough ph for them to
thrive.
