That's not light sensitivity.
When CS ions lose the water that solvates them, the ions oxidize into
silver oxide on exposure to the air. The normal color of silver oxide is
black but as i pointed out in a previous post, there at least 3 varieties
of silver oxide. One may be reddish or deep yellow or dark orange. I
haven't seen a color notation on the differences.
Silver oxide is inert. Dried metallic silver is immobile. Both
essentially ineffective for different reasons.

What does light sensitivity mean. I know when I spray it on me and it drips
on my white tank top it turns a rust color. Does that mean it is
ineffective?
