Thought of something this morning n had to share. When you wash hunting cloths in the scent control detergents how many people thrown in a towel? I got out of the shower early a.m. and dried my face, and smelled Tide. Doesn't make much since??? All the scent control prep, and then wiping the scent I am trying to eleminate all over me. Guess I'll be washing hunting cloths and towels tonight.

I'm glad this was bought up on the boards. I have all the detergents, field sprays, deodorant and everything for the few weeks I'm heading to the woods. After I come home to wash the camo and the season is done, what's a good storage method to keeping them as scent free as possible? I've seen quite a few of the "scent-free" tubs for $79, but is that really worth it? Or is there something cheaper I can use?

I'd probably keep everything possible to wash scent free all the way down to socks and underwear?

I have my own separate towels and all clothes in the house get washed with unscented detergent all fall.

Yes

Every stitch. I keep all my stuff in a big plastic tool box by Stanley from Home Depot but before a new season i wash it all over again

And Yes

I use the plane plastic tubs, and I put the fresh earth waffer's in with all my clothes. It seems to do well, and fragrance all my cloths.

I cant wait until i get into my new place. I can only keep hunting stuff inside for the time being and it is impossible to keep anything scent free with a wife and three daughters.

I am waiting on the wife to get back from taking the kids to school and she left while i was in the shower. I get out of the shower and open the bathroom door only to walk into a cloud of hairspray that was used before they left.

I wonder if deer like cucumber melon. :banghead:

You can get a kit to make a regular tub airtight.. for the $30 you may save I'm lazy and just bought the scentote.

I use some Duct tape, foam weatherstripping and a couple of Bungee cords. Makes them air tight. I get the tubs for @ $10 when they are on sale and the rest costs less than $30 to do 3 or 4 tubs.

Nah, they have a bunch at Wallyworld. Gonna pick one up for the kiddo before people start buying them up because theyre on the "Hot Toy" list this year. I appreciate it though!

No problem, and back at you!

I don't seal them but use the same tub's, perfect for storing hunting stuff during travel.
