I know guys that bought gallons of it and put it in spray bottles and sprayed the heck out of everything. I don't think it worked that well.

Wait a minute, one guy sprayed thetree he was sitting in then couldn't get down because of all the bees, so I guess it worked after all.

LOL...would've loved to have gotten a video of that.

I'm going out Saturday. Windchill will be -18. I won't be getting any bees, but, I might get frozen popsicle apple juice [8D]

Use Come'er deer

I've never heard of apple juice, but I have heard of taking apples and filling a stocking with them and flinging them in a tree so they rot and the juice drips. No idea if that works though

I've heard of guys trying it for cover scent but don't know how effective it was. I can't see were it would hurt spraying it around in your area but I don't think I would spray it on myself. I want to hide myself not have deer looking for me.

I don't know about that....I smell apples but having lived here all my life know there isn't an apple tree anywhere near.

Deer are forest goats. They will eat anything.

I disagree, I find deer picky and choosy eaters, they only go for the good stuff around here......
