Since this topic is already off the rails, I'll offer my .02.
When I bowhunted elk, rather seriously, I tried the strongest urine cover scents I could and found that on average, based on my many years of swirling mountain wind and blown stalks, the judicious use of cover scent applied liberally and often to my clothing (yeah, it sucked riding in the truck later) gained me another 1-2 seconds when a bull elk went downwind and caught my scent before he completely lost his mind with terror and left for the adjacent state.
Candles? No clue, fire season in the west every fall would preclude their use. But I hope it works out for you and look forward to a report.
Yep.
Off the rails.
Not many understand the sense of smell animals have.
If you are burning a turd or a candle, or using skunk scent, or rotten urine, or apple scent, or smoking a Cuban cigar while hunting.... the animals will smell all the above... PLUS YOU.
