Not odorless but a cover scent if they are growing around there. Rub Sassafrass leaves on your self.

I even brought one home to plant in my yard so I wouldn't have to stop on the way to my stand.

I need an odorless mosquito dope. All the insect repellants I've found, can't be covered up with any scent well enough to where a deer can't smell it. Here in Texas mosquitos are always a problem, I even had mosquitos last December!!! Thanks.

I use 3M cream style DEET repellent. A little goes a long way. It's not truly odorless, but then, neither am I. It's much less odorless than the liquids I've tried. If 3M isn't available, try another cream; it comes in small tubes.

the cedar cover scent works for me in the swamps of dorchester county maryland. They are BAD there. they will still buzz around, but not bite. It works for me. and is ony like 3-4 dollars

Thanks for the advice. I will look for the cream and try the cedar scent if I can find it again. I am headed to Rocksprings, TX this weekend, should be able to find some cedar scent in the hillcountry somewhere. Thanks again.

why not just buy one of the bug-tamer suits?
they come in all kinds of camo and even 3-d with leaves all over it and the price is about the same as a hunting outfit
