Scent free insect repellant?

[sheephunter]

With all the steps we take to stay scent free while hunting, is there such a thing as scent free insect repellant? Archery season is just around the corner and bugs can still be pretty bad this time of year.

Get a Thermacell! For our turkey season, the mosquitos can be pretty bad. After a few minutes of the Thermacell going, their won't be a squitor around. I've also heard of a lot of guys using these for bear season and early whitetail and no problems with animals smelling it or associating the smell with danger.

Thermacell doesn't work at high altitude.

Ah didn't know that...good to know for the future!

I never tried one, but when I heard they won't light up at high altitude. I gave up on the idea. I'm guessing there's not enough oxygen.
