Dave, are you soaking them or just brushing it on. Huge difference.

This is pretty much the reason why I'm switching to epoxy sealing.

As long as you store BLO soaked rags correctly you have nothing to worry about. Get a old Tupperware container, fill it half way with water then cover the rags in the water. Sore the container out back away from the house. I collect and restore old military rifles in addition to fishing for striper's and blues. I strip the wood and then hand rub BLO into them, After 3-4 coats of BLO I give them a coat of wood wax after. If the stocks are really dry I cut the BLO 50/50 with mineral spirits, It helps the BLO soak into the wood better.

I have ... mixing propionate and acetone ,,, seemed good ,, When I went to ues it a again the level was much lower in a sealed pickle jar .. Acetone evaporates like a bastadge . I'm sure I don't make enough plugs for alot of sealing/clear coat methods .
