I only used to treat flight holes for worm with a Cuprinol injector can but after reading Rodger Grants article (BVWS Philips set) about painting the whole of the inside I decided it was a good idea. After all squirting the holes is only closing the stable door.
I too was put off about the price of the treatment only being able to get 1L of Cuprinol at B&Q for £18. But then I found some by Rentokil for £5.36 for 250mL in my local hardware store (the chems are prob much the same). Used it on the inside of one cabinet that is in progress... very low smell, in use, and none later. Leaves a pleasant shine to the surface. Squirted the few flight holes obviously.
I'm not concerned about handling the cabinet after its dry, we live in such a nanny state its unlikely to be harmful and of course we are all good boys and wash our hands before...
