It's like someone said recently on this NG, "you can do all the wrong things
(talking about ponds actually) and get away with it", (until such time as it
catches you, like it did my sewage treatment guy, or the expert woodworker
who cuts his finger tips off on a saw).
Sometimes the less "expert" users have less problems, as they have more than
a healthy concern for the substances/machinery they are using. They avoid
getting comfortable while using them, unlike many of the veterans
('experts").

hazards
about it, & took a small amount out (with a Popsicle stick) to mix in
an
empty water bottle to add to my quarantine tank. I KNOW I wasn't that
careful, as I found when I was wiping up, lots of little purple 'dots'
on
the table. #yikes#. PLUS little brown dots on my hands. Now after
reading
all the stuff, I'm afraid to open the thing up without a hazmatsuit on!

which I can readily get from my hubby, since the company he works for
has
these things for the guys who paint the bridges........)
