Grizzly, I do the same thing sometimes too and that's always pretty effective as well!

I use fresh earth scent wafers to keep my stuff scent free during the summer. Works great, I usually air the box out about 2-3 times before the summer and put in new wafers.

I've been using the fresh earth scent wafers by HS Scents for years. I always use scent free laundry detergent on all my hunting clothes and then I store them in a plastic tote year round with 1 scent wafer. I've had deer all around me numerous times. I believe they work and I'll continue to use them. I had 3 bow kills this season and all were within 10 yards. Ya just can't argue with success.

ORIGINAL: GRIZZLYMAN

Not to disrupt the market for these scent wafers, but I've had more luck taking my clothing, washing it in scent free detergent, then putting it in a large sealable plastic storage box (about 3X2X3 I think) and taking leaves, branches, and berrys from the area that I hunt and place them in among the clothing. Since I've done that I have never had a deer wind me, and have actually had them come directily under my stand and mill around!

10-4......GRIZZLYMAN.....
After washing in Scent Free,I soak then in cold water with BI-CARBONATE OF SODA {STRONG ARM},
for 4 or 5 hrs. Take them out and let them DRIP dry.When dried,roll them in Pine needles or better yet-
pieces of LIGHTER PINE,place them in a storage bag.Some hunters down here, give them a light spray
of SIBERIAN PINE OIL. Don't wear them untill you are ready to go in the field!
Wearing your boots when you leave the house is not a good idea either! Sometimes you go into Kwik-Marts
for coffee or use thier REST ROOMS,most of them have alot of Human scent on the FLOORS!
If you are going to hunt a BURNT area, sit around the CAMP fire and smoke them good before you
go in the woods and they will smell like burnt pine!

Sounds like something I might want to try. The scent wafers in the Autumn formula don't smell like anything around where I hunt in Arkansas.

I know people who attach a scent wafer to their hat when they r hunting 2 mask scent. Is that a good idea or not i was thinking of trying it?

I tried this but they gave me a headache because scent was so strong. I just use them in my storage tote with my hunting clothes. I also use the odor eliminator spray in autumn formula on my boots and especially my hat.

I prefer that my hunting clothes are as odorless as possible. I wash them up at the end of the season, in scent free laundry soap, dry them then store them away in those vacuum seal bags and put them all in a plastic tote.
