Rubbermaid Containers
 

Just wondering if this gives off a scent od rubber. i mean when the stuff gets hot i can imagine it getting a smell in there. Just thinking out loud.

Well i put some bough branches in the bottom, then put my clothes in, then some on top and on the sides. the reason why i use bough branches is cause i hunt in the pines and stuff like that. But when i take my clothes out they dont smell like rubber...

ok not rubber but plastic.

I've been using a Rubbermaid type container for about 5 years now.I also line the bottom with spruce brows,and put a couple of earth scent wafers inside.I try to keep it outof the sun.If I'm hunting I try to keep my truck parked in the a shady area.I also lined the lip of the lid with some weather stripping to keep it as airtight as possible.

wash it out real good when you get it, I place some hay in the bottom and throw in a few fresh earth wafers

RE: Rubbermaid Containers
 

I have used Rubbermaid containers for years as well. I throw in a couple of earth scent dryer sheets, so it smells of fresh dirt every time I open the lid.

RE: Rubbermaid Containers
 

Yea, as long you put some earthly scents in there. I try to use stuff from the area where i hunt so i can already smell like the area im goin to hunt.

I like the weather stripping idea. Thanks for the info!

I use hunks of cedar and branches.

I USE THE RUBBERMAID CONTAINERS. I HUNT MOSTLY FROM PINES SO I PUT NEDDLES, BRANCHES IN THEM JUST BEFORE AND THRU SEASON.

RE: Rubbermaid Containers
 

yeah that seems to be what every1 does do u seal it off?

RE: Rubbermaid Containers
 

Yes I always keep it sealed up. But Im in and out of it all the time during season.(I got 4)I also change the neddles and branches about every 2 weeks so the scent is strong. I kind of grind them up a bit put them on the bottom.Put some chesse like cloth over that then my stuff on top.I also keep a pair of gloves just for climbing with to keep the sap off my hands(ever try to draw with sticky hands-not good)and hang the gloves buy mein stand because they smell like pine big time.

so use nature as a cover scent apposed to technolgy as a elimination methodleads to better sucsess.

RE: Rubbermaid Containers
 

i'd say cover scent but use some eliminating measures, like showers, bade layers, etc. Also use some scent eliminating products occasionally on the outer layer and boots so you dont give off scent when you brush up against stuff.

sounds like sum fun going on

RE: Rubbermaid Containers
 

i do the same as a lot of guys have mentioned, i put cedar limbs in mine

RE: Rubbermaid Containers
 

Ijust leave all my hunting clothes sit out on the deck all season. Then i dont have to worry about the smell.

RE: Rubbermaid Containers
 

Ive been using them for years, I place fresh earth scent wafers in the bottom, the middle and the top, this way the fresh earth scent covers all the clothes in the box. Works great and keeps them smelling like dirt all year round.

RE: Rubbermaid Containers
 

I do the same with Fresh Earth discs I have left over from the previous season, they really stink up the container and contents.

RE: Rubbermaid Containers
 

I get a couple packs of fresh earth scent wafers to put in my big tub with all my hunting clothes they stay smelling good all year! I also put acorn in with them!
