Dry Rot Inhibitor

[jono2000]

hi ; the masonry of my house have suffered dry and wet rot.

they're being sprayed by a specialist.

i've been told that there are additives that can be used in the plaster and sand and cement mixes that act as a fungicide to further inhibit any spores that may be present in the brickwork.

what are these additives called? what brand names do they go under.......

finally how effective is it? it isn't a big dry rot outbreak, but I really don't want to see it coming back...
