They may have just been warning you that the seeds were treated with an unknown chemical or powder. Some of the seed banks ha e samples that were from the 50s and they used DDT to prevent insect infestation. I've had seed banks warn me to use rebber gloves and a dust mask when working with some of their seed in the past.
