    Scent wafers from Hunter Specialties. Great for putting in your storage container that you keep your clothes in.

    Everyone is correct - HS Scent Wafers. I usually put a Fresh Earth one in the bin where I store my pack, calls, etc. I'm not sure if it really helps anything but it makes me feel like it does.

    Thats the most important part! I use one of the cedar ones in my storage container as well and usually put one in my bag during the season.

    Putting them in your storage bins sounds like a good idea! I'm gonna try that, probably the cedar tree since I hunt around a lot of them but I could also go with the fresh earth scent as well.

    Don't put them with your clothes if they're Scent Lok or Scentblocker, the scent will clog the carbon filters up and render them useless.
