It's easy to spray them internally, even in position, using the 360 degree lances supplied with the Bilt Hamner Dynax S50 treatments. Push fully into the void, press the button and slowly withdraw ( Ooer missus!)
Seriously, they do work well.

Be prepared for spillage where it drains. (Messy on driveways so put plenty of newspapers down)
