Hey UncleMatt!!! Matt is my brothers name! I don't wash them often. I have a plastic tub that is sealed with a lid. All of my hunting clothes go in it and I keep it loaded with fresh Pine needles and pine limbs. I change the pine mixture every two to three days. Man I smell like a pine tree. I sit in pine trees so it works out great. I plan to put up a ladder stand close to all the action, but not too close.
