Far as I know spraying an aerosol of these chemicals is quite bad for you.

Saw it done once by a lad putting a new roof up on timber ends with an electric paint sprayer but that was on the ground in an open space... looked at me and don't you do this.

A wide paint brush 6-8" is as fast as any. You only need to do any timbers adjacent to concrete. All birds mouths and plumb cuts.
