A-Way Hunting Products' Apple Scent Web contains 300' of apple-scented "string" you can spray out to 15' to avoid tainting the area with human odor. The scent activates upon contact with the air and gets stronger with time. Moisture reactivates it so it works for days. Contact: A-Way Hunting Products, 989/435-3879, www.awayhunting.com.
