    mix iodine crystals into concentrated ammonia till no more crystals can be absorbed (saturated solution) while its still in its wet state go paint it on your targets and place your targets before it dries out.
    the stuff is so sensitive when dry a blowfly landing on it will set it off.

    And when it blows up early any wounds are sterilized by the iodine.
