Simply put, we have a smell that they associate with danger. A predatorial smell. If you can reduce your human odor, you have shifted the odds in your favor

I know they can smell them. Hell, I can smell them, but I can't hunt the early season without one. Mosquitoes would carry me away. That said, I don't think they necessarily associate it with humans like other odors. Hunt the wind the best you can and try not to smell like a sweaty fart.

we call that "booger" smell. When deer smells booger, he gone. Thermacell does not smell like booger.
