A scent preventer comprising sodium bicarbonate and methods of its use are disclosed comprising an odorless plastic bag into which, prior to going into the field, the clothes of a hunter are inserted together with the scent preventer of a measured amount of sodium bicarbonate (Na HCO3). Then the bag is closed, shaked, and stored for up to two days prior to removal of the clothes of the hunter which are thereby rendered odor and scent free.
