mehunter Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 I used one this spring on a bear hunt in New Brunswick and it worked great and none of the bears that came in seemed to notice anything.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagnoliaHunter Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 Hey FLintlock IF you are seeing smoke out of it, most likely, the cartridges are dried out. Either you are re-using them or they are old and dried out. This CAN happen even with unopened ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tominator Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 I ordered one yesterday as a result of this thread and the fact that I was covered in bugs in one spot I checked out the other day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 I ordered one yesterday as a result of this thread and the fact that I was covered in bugs in one spot I checked out the other day. Picked one up at wal mart here yesterday and used it this morning. Did not have any skeeters land on me, but did not see any deer either. The odor from the thermacell was very noticeable and have to wonder if the deer in the area smelled it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest whitetailhunter01 Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 Don't hunt without it! In the swamps here in FL, you can almost take off all of your bug spray and bug tamers clothing when you have a thermacell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowcountry boy Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 I don't know how I went without one. I even stopped wearing my Bug Tamer this year. As to the wind question, if it's breezy enough for the Thermacell to be ineffective, you shouldn't have any problems with the bugs. Has anyone noticed that the cartridges don't seem to last as long as they did last year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest whitetailhunter01 Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Mine seem to last the same as last year...huh, weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
