Things you can do
- For the water: boil it and let it stand a few days preferably in a glass container before using it. As iodine is water soluble boiling the water will allow it to evaporate and keeping the water is because the half life is 8 days so the quantity will be reduce.
- Try to wear a hat and outside clothing that you keep near the door with your shoes. Especially the soles of shoes are easily contaminated, also cover yourself from the rain.
