Baking soda for scent control?
 
I have read a few post with people using baking soda for scent control,Which prompted me to think.I was just wondering how much do you use when washing camo? I am considering trying it because am fed up with buying"special detergents". Thank you in advance. Shawn

I wash my camo in plain water and hang them to dry. After a put them in a storage bin and sprinkle Baking Soda between each layer. I have had deer walk under my stand and never know I was there.

I use the Baking Soda unscented deteregent,after it's all done I refill the washer on the soak setting put in a half a box (full load) and let it sit for about a half an hour and the spin cycle dry it on the line.

I dont dry my clothes on the line cause I dont like to way they feel. I use the dryer but also use the hunting dryer sheets.

2 cups of baking soda per load and dry them on the line. I also use baking soda in the shower before the hunt if I am out of hunters soap. Baking soda in the shower is a little tricky though because you have to keep the box dry and it takes a little more time. Good luck everybody.

1/2 of a box on the rinse cycle and then into the dryer with dry earth dryer sheets for me.

I always make sure all the baking soda is rinsed completely because if there's any residue remaining,
it may pick up undesirable odors. That's what this product is designed to do.

i got a buddy that swears by this
he takes aqua velva soap and cuts strips by his hunting spots year round, washed his cloths in it and bathes in it before he hunts and Gods my witness the man kills nice deer every year!!
