Wool and scent killer spray

[aim small...release]

Will it damage wool to spray down with scent killer or is there something else to do???

[Izzy]

No, not at all. The only things  I know of that damages wool are heat and bleach.

I've used it for years on mine with no damage noticed. If it's nice out, I take my stuff off after a hunt, hang it outside (at camp in trees upwind of smoke from chimney or at home on the back deck under roof awning), spray down and let them air dry. This is for my outwear. My smartwool long underwear gets washed in scent free soap and hung to dry in same fashion.

I don't think scent killer will hurt wool. I'm also not a big believer in buying scent killers anymore. I don't think they offer any significant advantage over common sense and natural (i.e. Free) scent covers. Keep your clothes away from household odors (don't fry bacon in them or leave them), leave them outside during hunting season (don't hang them on the lawnmower) and when I store them in the off season I pack them in plastic bags with some natural items like pine boughs and leaves in a cloth or breathable bag. Those scent wafers work good for that too but I don't like buying them lol.

Heck yeah....I bought a couple pairs of Czech military surplus wool pants a while back, left them hanging at them cabin as emergency clothes......looks like they took about a hundred rounds of 00 buckshot lol

Wool doesn't retain body orders like other materials.  Just air them out a bit.  No need to spray them with anything.

Have heard that wool is naturally scent free, as well.

Don't think it damages it, but the couple times I've used it with my wool I instantly get that wet wool smell, so I prefer to use vegetation in the area i'm hunting.
