Mixing and Use Instructions
Mixing
Add formula granules to the fill line on the included applicator bottle. Add clean drinking water, then shake until the formula is completely dissolved.
Field Application
Spray exposed game meat thoroughly after skinning and before bagging when conditions call for it. In high-bug conditions, apply at the kill site after meat is cleaned and prepared for hanging or transport.
Extended Hunt Use
On extended hunts, remove game bags during the cooler final hours of daylight, spray exposed meat surfaces, re-bag the meat, and let it sit overnight. Re-bag before bugs become active at daybreak.
Additional Information
Meat Care Still Comes First
Game Bag Spray is a support tool, not a replacement for proper meat care. The main rules still apply: keep meat clean, cool, dry, shaded, and off the ground with airflow around the bags.
Proper Field Meat Care Basics
- Remove hide and hair as quickly and cleanly as conditions allow.
- Keep meat shaded and avoid direct sun when hanging or staging quarters.
- Keep meat off the ground and allow air to move around the bags.
- Rotate meat parts inside the game bag when needed so more surface area gets airflow.
- Move meat to a cooler or cold storage as soon as practical.
