Thermacell for hunting?

[yellowhammer]

It doesn't spook deer, but I Had one on my stand between my feet once, and gave myself carbon monoxide poisoning. Took two days to recover.

I’ve been fine without one.

They are absolute life savers in the early season when the mosquitos are still around. I have used one for the past 3 seasons and the deer haven't paid it any attention.

Funny the guy above mentions yellow jackets. I switched to the earth scent this year and have been swarmed by yellow jackets each trip I’ve used it so far. Definitely going to be going back to the original scent now.

Mine got me busted

I've used one for years and love it. Can't say for sure that the scent it gives off has never spooked a deer, nothing I can recall ever led me to blame it for that.

I have never tried one.

You need to get you one! You will not regret it.

Are these OK to use when hunting or do they give the deer cause for alarm and split time? I'll be Hunting from the ground.

If it wasn't for hunters, you'd have probably never heard of thermacell.
