Default Need help with scent control

I have a question that might get a little long and confusing, but stick with me. This is my 3rd year bow hunting this certain chunk of land, it is about 11 acres. The first 2 years I had deer all over the place, including right under my stand, and I am only up about 10 feet on all of my ladder stands. I know I should be higher, but I dont like heights at all. Anyways, I have never really been a stickler on scent control until this year. At the end of last year, I went out and got a bunch of plastic totes. I washed them out with the no scent soap that I washed my clothes in, and then I picked up some of those earth scented wafers and thru one of those in each tote with all of my camo. I also got some new rubber boots, and keep those in a tote too. Now this year, I have been hunting for almost a month now, and I have only had 2 does even close to me. It seems to me that all of my stuff really smells like those little earth wafers really bad, and I was wondering if that smell was scaring them all away????? I know there are lots of deer on my hunting land, becouse I have 2 cameras out there, and I have lots of pictures of many different deer. Sorry this got so long, I am just getting frustrated.
