Default How many don't use...

a Thermacell in early season? If you don't, please explain why. ie., no bugs, scent, other

Thanks

It's not that I won't hunt early season without it. I can't. Mosquitoes will bleed you down where I hunt.

Man, the thermacell is "the" mosquitoe repellent. Look it up on the web.

I think that the thermacell is the best product I've ever bought.

The skeeters don't bother me too bad.... if I want something "Bug Repellent" I'll buy a Bug Tamer suit.. at least I don't have to buy refills for it!!

Ditto!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't stand it last season, but then again I won't be hunting as much early season as I did last year, I learned my lesson!

I dont use one, but I got no good reason for not. I have heard they work really well. What about sand-gnats will they work on those. To me they are worse than the skeeters.
In the military we used un-scented "skin-so-soft" it seemed to work pretty well.
