I thought Mercurochrome had less sting than Iodine. Please don’t let me believe my Mother lied to me.

Can you imagine seeing a kid....ANY kid walking around in shorts, Keds with big red patches of Mercurochrome on each knee? They'd look like alien beings. Sure would make a good Halloween costume.

Iodine is for sissies. We had Mercurochrome Merthiolate was the bad stuff. Felt like you were being cauterized. My dad would say "If it hurts it's killing germs so it's a good thing".
