Default Deet and Deer/Hog Hunting

Hello,

I plan do some early season archery hunting this year in Central Florida. I know that the mosquitoes can be very bad and think I should put on some deet; however, I am worried that the deer/hogs will smell the deet. Does the smell of deet keep away the deer and hogs?

I plan to use a thermcell, but I can only start it once I am on my stand and the few times I have tried it the mosquitoes still kept coming. )-:

Any other tips on keeping bugs at bay?

Cheers,
Chris
