I’ll fly over and survey the area.

ONLY, if you're not planning on having anymore children! ;)

Nice try but you receive about 300 mRem/yr naturally, more if you live at high elevation or fly more than average. And if you ever received a CT-scan, that’s about 150 mRem in one shot[1]. Coleman lantern filaments used to read 2,000 cpm (fixed alpha radiation), thorium is naturally radioactive, but the company now uses nonradioactive yttrium.
