Can a dirt-filled porch be drilled and treated from the side?

Yes, it can be horizontally drilled and treated.
No, it can only be vertically drilled.
Yes, but only at specific intervals.
No, it cannot be treated at all.

The correct answer is: No, it can only be vertically drilled.

The correct answer is that a dirt-filled porch can only be vertically drilled. This is because the structural integrity and the nature of materials involved often require drilling from the top down to effectively access and treat the soil beneath, particularly when addressing issues like pest infestations or moisture problems. When it comes to treatment, vertical drilling allows for better penetration of the treatment substance directly into the area that requires attention. Horizontal drilling could end up being less effective due to the potential for treatment to miss the targeted areas. Specific intervals for drilling may not be effective if the focus is to comprehensively address the soil or structural issues present. This limitation emphasizes the need to follow industry-standard practices for treating dirt-filled structures, which typically rely on vertical approaches for efficacy and safety.
