*Whack* I use my hand.

I dont have anything to use. I never really had too much of a problem with them. Usually I have all my body parts covered up.

I can smell it (thermacell). I know they can smell it.

So one might come back with....."Well why would they be afraid of that smell"? Why would they be afriad of gasoline smell.....yet we worry our asses off over that.

I can smell it. I cover up like Brett and deal with it.

I just handle it with netting and cover up all parts. I do hunt for sikas in the swamps, and I just can't take it on a warm day. YOu have to have a thermalcell. And just deal with the smell. I walked out of that swamp one day with 50-60 bites on my face alone.

Therma Cell, yea theres a smell but no bugs. If you were worried about smell that much then you need to stay out of the woods. Nothing will stop human odor completely, use the wind to your advantage and just hunt with a therma cell.
