Default diy scent killer recipe

Hey guys came across this in another forum I frequent and figured I would share. It is a recipe for diy scent killer and i figure with the current economy it is worth a try.

16 oz.peroxide (brown bottle from wally mart is o.k(2 cups)
16 oz. distilled water
1/4 cup baking soda
1 oz. non- scented shampoo

let this sit for a few days in a one gallon milk container with the lid loose and should be good to go.

Tips on spray bottles ; should be impervious to light, paint clear bottles black if neccasary.

Hope this helps save some of you a few bucks this season!

I have seen this recipe before, the only question I have is does the peroxide discolor clothes?

I found this recipe about 3 years ago and posted it in a few forums. I have used it with success. (8 deer in 3 years) It does not stain clothing.
I cover with earth scent which seems to work good too.

Boy, you guys are a tough crowd! Not sure if it works or not however there were quite a few posts stating it works well on the forum it came from. I was just passing on to you guys what I thought was a pretty good idea.... maybe I should just keep quiet next time. Besides with a screen name like deerless who would trust me anyway?

Heck deerless, I trust you. I have also seen the recipe here before. I would use it if I ran out of the usual and had the ingredients on hand.

I think you should keep speaking your peace. I like reading these posts that offer something different to think about.We are all adults and some more experienced more than others at hunting, but we should be open to other ideas , even to keep our minds open to a POSSIBLE change or improvement. I often wonder how much stock we put into what marketing schemes try to make us believe how their products actually work.Example,ScentLok.Personally I use baking soda in a clean pre rinsed W/baking soda washing machine and it seems to hold my trust ,however I am open to other ideas . Trial and error is a good method. Keep posting and try to take some of the replies with an open mind and a grain of salt.

I agree with huntr, there's always reason to give new things a try especially if it's going to save a few dollars, those dollars we save add up.
