If you drilled the holes 12 inches apart, then you would have 10 holes over 10 feet that you are trying to fill with 4 gallons. This works out to be a little less than half a gallon per hole. To fill these I would recommend using the one gallon sprayer on a "pin stream" setting so you can force the liquid down the hole and not splash it everywhere. You could use the B&G 1 Gallon Sprayer N124-S-18. You can also use a funnel and pour the termiticide down the holes. For more information on treating for termites, please click the link below.
