Anyone make their own scent cover?

Last year, I made some from Distilled water, Hydrogen Peroxide, Baking soda, and a little scent removal shampoo. Does anyone know the correct amount to mix these ingrediants? I had picked up I gallon of Distilled water, 2 quarts of HP, 1 box of baking soda, and I already have the shampoo, from Wal Mart.

Please let me know since I can remember how much of each should be used.

Thanks,

Tom

i mix a one part gasoline and one part dodge ram, with one part trip to wal mart for some scent killer spray. it probably doesnt cost any more and i tiwll be guaranteed to be the right mixture every time.

Tomster, I'm not sure what the correct mixture is so sorry I can't help you there but I have another idea for scent elimination. About a week before the season opens I take all of my clothes and stuff them in a trash bag. I then put in some leaves and a bunch of pine tree branches and let it sit on my porch until the season opens. Come opening day I am ready to go.

I have read several times were people have boiled pine branches and leaves for about 30 minutes then put it in a spray bottle. I have also heard of people who have put baking soda in a spray bottle of water and that works too. So i was wondering if you boiled the pine branches and stuff. And then put it in a bottle almost full. And then put baking soda at the top. Just pretty much combining the ideas....has anyone tried it?

How do we know the home-mix works? I don't think putting dilluted scent killing shampoo on your clothes is going to eliminate scent. That is not the intended purpose. I agree with fitpays. Why not just buy the real stuff. It's not THAT expensive.

The baking soda would eliminate the pine scent!

When I was a kid I made a pine cover scent but taking abunch of pine needles and puting them in the blender with a little water and blending the crap out of them. Then I strained off the liquid and put it in a spray bottle, worked good as a cover scent. Of course my mother was rather upset that she now had a pine fresh blender and needless to say that little science project was never performed again.

I used pine-sol when I was a kid.I would put it in a spray bottle diluted with water and always killed my buck and lots of coyote and fox.The pine-sol is hard on your hunting clothes though.Makes them fade fast.But it works.I now use autum scent killer.I like the earthy scent.

Thanks Double Creek,

What I did last year, is I cut your ingrediants in half. 2 quarts Hydrogen Peroxide, 2 quarts distilled water, 1 cup of baking soda, 1 cap of unsented soap. Mixed the ingrediants and place the mixture back into gallon container of distilled water. The only thing I did not like about this mixture was that anything I sprayed, it left a white film from the baking soda. Other than that, it worked fine and I will make it again.

Thanks,

Tom
