[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 2183830, member: 91783"] I haven't used a thermocell and the question by HECOULD made me wonder about them so I did a little research on them finding them to be interesting . They use a synthetic pyrethrum ( pyrethrum is made from chrysanthemums ) called d-cis/trans allethrin which can have some interesting side effects from overexposure , including unconsciousness . I plant marigolds in my yard for mosquito control and don't use deet any longer but use some natural repellents instead , peppermint , wintergreen , citrus oils work pretty good but still not put on my skin and it just takes a drop or two as well as eating garlic and not eating things that are sugary or turn to sugars in my body in large amounts , starchy foods beer ect . tend to make me a mosquito magnet so I tend to avoid eating too much of them . I have also found that it helps with the fleas that the fox and coyote have on them , insects don't like me (but kids and animals do . I was taught a long time ago that our bodies put off different odors from what we eat and what our medical conditions are diabetics for example put off a sweet smell and mosquitos are drawn to them as are other insects bees ect. There are so many interesting things that can play a roll in our hunting and our body odor is just a small part of it . I have in the past touched on the subject of how our body odor changes when our level of comfort or stress changes and have proven to myself that if when I am excited about hunting my body emits a stronger odor then when I am relaxed . Just some more of my thoughts and observations that my peak a little interest in someone to do a little studying for themselves on the subject . [/QUOTE]
