Default Early season non-scented bug spray??


Anyone have any brands of bug spray they use for early season bowhunting? Obviously something non-scented, but something that's effective? I've heard that "cedar" cover scent works pretty good. Anyone try that?

Any help with keeping the pesty mosquitos away would be most appreciated!!

Rob,
Just bought an aerosol can of "No Stinkin' Bugs". It is supposed to be scent free. I picked it up at Wally World for about 5 bucks. I have not tried it yet, but may do so in the back yard while shooting. I cannot believe there are any mosquitoes anywhere else in the world with all of them being in my back yard. I will let you know how it performs. The bugs in the yard are not at all put off by the stuff the wife uses on the kids. I don't think it slows them down. That being said, if this new stuff works out back, I would have to say it is pretty good. I keep you posted.

Rob, I've been using No Stinkin' Bugs this summer shooting 3D. It works pretty good, and smells like dirt. Mine is the earth scent. $5. at Wally's is good, I paid $11. at Cabelas.

I have used No Stinkin Bugs in the Fresh Earth scent with excellent results. I bought a new can at WalMart a few weeks ago.
