This'll be my first year to really try and bow hunt... what do you guys do about mosquitoes?

Thermacell? Wouldn't deer smell this?

Any other options?

Thermacell. If the deer smell it, the gig is up because they've already smelled you.

Does it work for chiggers? I've had 2 bouts with chiggers while scouting in the past 2 weeks. Right now I've got about a hundred bites from my thighs down

THERMACELL. Make sure you get a refill pack too.

Thermacell is really for when you're sitting still, so that the vapors can envelop you in their invisible cloud and keep the skeeters away. Probably not gonna work well at keeping chiggers off your boots and pants leg walking through tall grass -- for that you'd need to hose down with spray repellant.

Another vote for Thermacell. Best thing to come out for bow hunters in a long while.

Picked up a Thermacell at Wally World today and wore it shooting in the backyard. Completely impressed.

I don't know how any avid outdoorsman lives without one. They are awesome to have on the boat too at certain times. Or on the porch if you have skeeter issues.
