Episode 39 - Citronella

Scum Remover

Helping a fox, hare or deer cover their scent is one of the most basic methods of sabotaging hunting. But there is some skill in choosing when and where to use it. So Gizzie Rascal spoke with former HSA tactics officer Colin Skilton about how to effectively use citronella, both as a pre- and post-spray. There is also a bit of history on the term 'red herring'. - Tactics section of the HSA website: https://www.huntsabs.org.uk/tactics/hsa-tactics/ - Wordhistories.net article on the term red herring: https://wordhistories.net/2017/07/06/red-herring-origin/ Featured image is by Shropshire Hunt Saboteurs.
