a coffee can of leaves or hay works well  just burn the leaves and stand in the smoke

    I would forgo the walnuts.  They will fermint.  Just go with plain pine needles, and maybe the vanilla.  Hmmm, what about bears in the area.  "Man, that was a tasy human, wish it had some hot sauce on it." ;D  OOOh, do you smell walnuts? :o

Love the visual there Wayne. Fortunately (or unfortunately) I live in IL so no bears... But I will try the brew this year without walnuts and see if that helps to cut out the fermenting.

Thanks for the tips guys!

well i dont try to cover my sent i am testing something this season every day i will put a small amount of the washing detergent in the blind with a Tshirt and i think after awhile the animals will get use to the smell and think nothing of it. this morning i was down wind and this evening the wind shifted and a doe came 15 yards from me and almost in my shooting area so i think its working :). since i hunt in my front yard i have seen a herd of deer come up when i left the radio playing the night before . so my theory is if they get use to it with no harm for awhile then it becomes part of the environment. i will let yall know if it works lol ttyl

Sterling an oldtimer I knew when I was kid always left an old coat or shirt with his scent on it out at his stand.
Hmmm come to think of it he always shot a nice buck too :)
