Default Cleaning a scent dripper

Anyone know the best way to clean out a scent dripper after the season? I just don't want the old smell to affect next years scent.

I've never been able to get the scent out of it.I just wash it out and store it in a baggie until next season.It's never affected it the next time I use it.

Hunting is not a sport,it's a lifestyle.

I take mine and run water in it from the garden hose outside and shake the water out. I do that about 5-10 times and then I put an ounce or two of water in it and hang it up outside just like I would if it had scent in it. I've found that by the time the water has all dripped out of it, the smell isn't bad. I then store it in a ziploc bag.

Good idea Tx,I think I'll add some bakeing soda and try it that way.Just let it drip out.

Thanks for the tips. I never even considered leaving it to drip with the water in it.
