Steps

  1. Use a laundry detergent marketed to the hunting fraternity. For example, there is one such product called "Scent Away" but you should be able to find others by searching the internet. A detergent such as this removes any and all odors from hunters' clothing in order that animals are less able to detect the scent of a hunter.
  2. Try a quarter cup of the relevant detergent, one scoop of an oxygen bleach preparation available at supermarkets and your usual fabric softener.
  3. Wash.
  4. Put the clothes in the dryer and dry as usual. The heat will draw out any other odors left in the clothing. You can also throw in a scented bag (the sort you leave in drawers) to add a sweeter odor to the clothing and air around the laundry.

Tips

  • Possibly also try vinegar and/or bicarbonate of soda if you cannot get hold of such a detergent as suggested here.
