Sent Containers
 

Anyone ever try the Sent Lok Containers? If you did, do they work?

I'm a cheap a$$. I made my own. I got a big plastic tote from Wally World and put a couple of freshearth dryer sheets in it. When my clothes come out of the dryer they go into the tote. I put the clothes on when I get to where I hunt. When I'm done I take off my outer layer and spray it down with fresh earth cover scent and it goes back into the container. I keep my back pack, fanny pack, hats, gloves, neck gator, face mask, and 3D
leaf suit in it. It all stays in the car. The scent lock ones are way too high $$ for me.

I am cheap to. I use the new zip loc bags that are like 3 ft by 2 ft. with wafers and put in a big plastic tub.

I do both things that Parrot Head and Nohillbilly do. I can't justify spending the $$$ on scentlok items of any kind.

Me too...I just use one of those $5 tubs with a lid Wal-Mart sells then sprinkle baking soda over them each time I take them in and out. The cheap stuff keeps things just as scent-free.

Me too, i take a big plastice tub and then put a layer of clothes then some scent killer with a scent wafer and then another layer and so on, i cant see spending what 75$ on a "ScentLock" container, when my concocksion works just fine

I store them in a trash bag during the off-season then in mid to late August I hang them out in my backyard over a branch in the tree by my deck and let mother nature do the rest. After each hunt I hang em on that same branch unless it's going to rain then I just put them in a trash bag with dirt and leaves from the woods untill I go out again. Nothing better than smelling like the outdoors.

I just buy the big rubbermaid tubs from target and wash them out with scentfree laundry detergent. Let em dry and throw about a dozen "dry" (so they won't rot) leaves in the bottom and then one of those arm and hammer boxes of scent absorber baking soda.

So far no problems, but nothing that goes against my skin like long underwear or t shirts and such goes back in the container, it all gets washed scent free and stuck back in after it dries.

Rubbermaid tubs and the big zip-lock bags for storage are great. I also use dead down wind detergent which seems to eliminate any scent.

I do all of the above that everyone else has mentioned. Scent-lock tubs??:D:D How does it get any more scent free than a rubbermaid tub with leaves, scent wafers, etc...?? Air molecules carrying scent can't get in the tub whether it has a rubbermaid label on it or a Scent-Lok label on it.[:-] Keep your clothes washed in scent free detergent on a regular basis, use scent killer spray, store your clothes in rubbermaid tubs, and save your money.

I wouldn't go with a Scent-Lok tub if they made it. Like everyone else, I have two rubbermaid tubs that I keep my clothes in with a Fresh Earth scent wafer or two. Does the job just fine!

I also use the large rubber made tub from Wally's, however I tape up the vent holes (found under the handle indents), and also put some thin weather stripping around the rim. Some may think it's anal, but I don't want to take any chances on BIG LOUEY bustin me. On the inside, I have 3 or 4 sacks of activated charcoal, the type used in fish aquariums. Also bought this at Wally's. I have it wrapped up in cheese cloth, and believe it helps absorb odors. You can also re-activate the charcoal baggies in the dryer, just as you would a scent-lok suit.BUT, be sure to double bag it in a thick sock or something of the like, or it will leave the dryer drum black, thus enraging momma[:@]:eek:

Ultra man- What is this charcoal bag you speak of?[8D] Are you talking about the thingy that goes at the bottom of the fish tank filter? Never heard of that for scent control. What's the deal behind it?
