This is true, it can be mixed at different concentrations for different purposes. My vet uses it at high concentrations to sterilize surgical tools and at lower concentrations they use it to clean wounds on animals(not humans). He recommended rinsing it when using higher concentrations. I say better safe than sorry. Getting it on skin or scales shouldn't be dangerous but I wouldn't want the residue getting on a rodent or in the water bowl and being accidentally ingested.
