    I have a predator trail camera that still works great, but it always gets foggy on the lens so the pictures don't turn out in the morning and sometimes evening. Does anyone know of anything that I can do to stop that from happening?

    Sounds like it's getting moisture inside of it. Make sure the seal doesn't have any breaks or cracks. You also can put those little silica paks inside the case. I use those on my homebrew cams and they work very well.

    You can try the wipes used to stop fogging on glasses/scopes etc. Or apply concentrated soap (dish detergent) to the lense and let it dry. Once dry buff it off. That works for glasses and such. That may leave behind a scent though.

    Like PastorJim says....Silica Packs...That's what they're made for.

    I thought about using those silica packs but wasn't sure if they would work. Thanks I will give em a try.
