Thermacell's In Archery Season

RE: Thermacell's In Archery Season
I've had deer right under my stand during archery season and had deer walk up to within yards during spring turkey season without spooking from my thermacell. I just bought 3 more, I never want to be without one.

Exactly as JeramyK says.....

I don't think twice about using my Thermacell during archery season. I too have had deer walk right under my stand while I've had the Thermacell turned on. The way I see it is that whether you use it or not you are playing the wind because of scent reasons. So the wind is also going to direct any odor from the Thermacell away from the deer.

As a native Floridian, I have hunted and fished in some of the worst mosquito infested areas you can imagine. The thermacell is a Godsend! The first year they came out, a buddy bought me one and boy, do I owe him! I've still got that original, you have to light it with a match or lighter. I have killed a multitude of deer, hogs and turkeys with it at my side and have never to my knowledge had an animal spook from the odor. Fire it up, give it about five minutes and you're mosquito free. Don't think it's working? Shut it off and see. Makes a pretty good body heater without the pad in cold weather too.

Year before last I was hunting one evening with my thermocell. I had three does come inside 10 yards with a slight breeze blowing thethermocell smoke that direction. They stayed there browsing for a long time and they never new I was there, mesquito free. I wont go in the woods with out one!
