ThermaCELL does work and does not spook any game. But there is what yea call a "NEW" kid on the block that I just saw at ATA show. It's called Scent King. Insect repellent lasts weeks not hours. No more buying fuel tanks of butane, runs on batteries and lastsa lot longerthan butane. Check it out at www.scentkingoutdoors.com

Check it out for yourself. More effective and cost less to operate. Scent King unit cost the same as a ThermaCELL.
