Dryrods can be used in a solid concrete wall. To ensure that the chemical is able to spread through the concrete we would recommend inserting the rods closer together every 100mm.
The most common and easiest way is to drill a series of small holes into the base of one side of each wall and insert the Tech-Dry damp coursing cream into these holes.

Medium heavy rods can handle a wide variety of bass fishing techniques. Whether you're throwing a Texas rig, a jig, or a spinnerbait, the rod's power and action allow for a range of presentations without compromising performance.
Holes are drilled in a wall, using a 12mm drill bit, along the first continuous mortar course that is at least 150mm above ground level. On a standard brick wall, these holes are drilled 90% into the width the wall at 120mm intervals.
"While DampRid is nowhere near as rapid or effective as a good dehumidifier, it almost works the same as a poor-performing dehumidifier," says Chris.
A dry stick works effectively as a shipping container moisture absorber, reducing condensation inside the container. Each stick store up to 2 litres of water in a moisture protected membrane which prevents the moisture re-entering the container.
