What does everyone use for Scent elimination? I didn't if there is a best scent elimination out there....I know i use either Primos Earth Scent or just scent away...what does everyone else use?
So how exactly does that work? You just put a bunch of baking soda in the washing machine instead of detergent?
There was a study on it a little while ago. They didn't use every brand but scent away original did the best. You can find the article on line somewhere.
I'm mobile right now but I'll find some past threads. This has been discussed before. Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
I used Tinks Vanish for the last half of the season. Couldn't tell the difference in it or the Original scent away. Only the Tinks sprayed out of the bottle better and cost more. Harvested a deer with both. I'm torn on what to use This coming season.

The answer to all your scent (or scent removal) needs can be found in your grocery store at .75 cents a box. I have been using this product for my bowhunting needs for decades. I brush my teeth with it, wash all my hunting clothes in it and then store my (air dried) hunting clothes in in. I literally pour box after box on to of my camo that is stored in Rubbermaid totes and then place the lid on and shake and tumble the tote. The white power shakes off with a flick of the wrist when I'm dressing but enough of the powder remains in the fabric for the time I'm on stand. Its cost effective and works great for all scent elimination. For boots, I would fill the insides to the top with dry baking soda and for the outside I would make a heavy paste with water and smear it on and let it sit. Baking soda is a bowhunters friend. Now go buy a case of it but don't tell anybody our secret. This from the fine folks of Arm and Hammer Baking soda. Use baking soda to deodorize your garbage pail. Clean the garbage pail using a wet paper towel dipped in baking powder. Rinse the pail with a damp sponge and let it dry. You could also scatter a little baking soda into the pail before putting in a new bag. To get rid of the smell of fish, soak the raw fish in 1 quart (1 liter) of water with 2 tablespoons of baking soda. Keep the fish in the refrigerator for an hour. Rinse and wipe the fish before cooking. To get rid of nasty food odors, wet your hands and rub them with 2 teaspoons of baking soda. Deodorize your fridge and freezer by putting in an open container of baking soda to absorb odors. Stir and turn over the soda from time to time. Replace every 2 months. If you have musty odors in dresser drawers, cabinets or closets, fill the toe of a clean sock with about 3 to 4 tablespoons of baking soda. After tying a knot, hang it in the closet. To keep odor away, replace the baking soda every month. The lingering smell of cigarettes can be got rid of by lightly sprinkling the upholstered chairs and sofas with some baking soda. Let it remain on the furniture for a few hours and then vacuum it off. To remove odor from your dog and leave his coat shiny and clean, rub a few handfuls of baking soda into his coat and then brush it thoroughly. Make a paste out of 1 tablespoon baking soda, salt and water. Use this to clean your cutting board. Rinse the cutting board thoroughly with hot water after scrubbing. To use baking soda as a mouthwash, put 1 teaspoon of baking soda into half a glass of water. It neutralizes the odor as soon as it comes into contact with it. Foot odor and the dirt that gathers between the toes can be got rid of by making a soothing bath. For this use 4 tablespoons of baking soda mixed in 1 quart (1 liter) of warm water. To make your clothes whiter and brighter, add ½ a cup of baking soda to your usual amount of laundry detergent. Baking soda softens the water too. Add ½ a cup of baking soda during your washer's rinsing cycle to remove the smell of mothballs from clothes.
so the animals can't smell the baking soda on your clothes, its ok if the powder is still on your clothes when you hit the woods?
I commonly hunt in the rain, after it gets wet will it harden and turn to a concrete? Interesting bunch of reads, need to go through more later though. Thanks for posting all those Brad, it's a pain to search on the blackberry.
No, it's not near as necessary, i still do my normal routine but it's only because of habit. I just think it would be funny. How much is ozonics anyways?
