    I would like to know if any of you replace your wicks every year or just reuse them and just add more scent to them. I have been reusing mine but was thinking on putting up new ones this year. Will the old scent used last year do more damage than good...I don't know. Looking for some feedback on this as the population of deer here is not as good as what I watch on BHOD.

    Both. I have some that have been hanging on a branch for 3 years, and some get taken away by the wind or start falling apart from the elements and I just replace them. When I find a scrape or make a mock scrape, I put 2-3 wicks on the trail on either side of the scrape. I refresh them once a week in October and then nearly every hunt in November.

    Ah, ok. Sounds good. I may just add a couple of new ones to my old ones.
