I stored wafers in my bin with my clothing. Scent is way to strong. I aired them out, tried washing them and eventually took them to the dry cleaners. The smell was still to powerful. Ended up buying new camo clothes. If the smell to potent for me, im sure a deer would have no problem sniffing me out with such a strong odor.

On the other hand, I have had luck using the Doe Heat wafer stuck to a branch as well as the apple.

I just wouldnt recommend storing them or the earth wafer with your gear.
