    Default Blackflies and mosquito protection

    Okay, so it looks like i'm off to my first bear hunt this weekend. The weather calls for blackflies and mosquitos
    Since scent is important, and I'm guessing there isn't any non-scented deet, what do you fellas use in the treestands?
    Mosquito clothing, nets, sprays??

    Let me have it..

    I use a Thermacell with earth scent pads. There is really nothing you can do to be scent free. If the critters are down wind, they will smell you, regardless of what you use or don't use. At least with the Thermacell it may mask some if your scent, and you won't be eaten alive.
