Cheap Alternative for Scent Killing

 I was recently reading a question and answer forum regarding archery hunting. One question stuck out to me because it had to do with human odor. Specifically odor coming from our mouths. The answer made perfect sense even though I had never thought of it before. The response to killing odor in our mouths to help with scent control came down to using a toothpaste with baking soda. This really got me to thinking because it made so much sense. We use baking soda in our refrigerators and freezers to kill odors that can at times be very strong. Yet at the same time it stays odorless. So my conclusion was why can we not use straight baking soda and apply it however you would like to kill human odor while we hunt? We could use it like baby powder and foot powder and apply all over. I gave it a try recently and from what I can tell Baking soda far surpassed all the expensive scent killing sprays that i have used up until this point. I will take it a step further and say why not mix baking soda and water in a spray bottle to accomplish the same thing these high dollar sprays try to accomplish.

The great thing about this product is a box of baking soda is a dollar at the most. I plan on using this for the rest of this hunting season and I will update my findings in the future. Good luck and continue in your OutDoorDreaming.
