    SANITIZE SCENT FREE

    New Scent Free Hand Sanitizer from DDW perfect for use after harvesting game

    and during peak rut/Flu Season.

     

                Pleasant Valley, MO – Dead Down Wind®, an industry leader in scent prevention, introduces Instant Odorless Hand Sanitizer.  This 4 oz bottle of hand sanitizer kills 99.9% of common germs and is odorless in less than 5 seconds.  It even removes any hand odors in the process like cigarette or gas odors not just bacteria based odors.   

     “Unfortunately, the peak hunting seasons seem to correspond with the peak of the flu season” stated Dead Down Wind GM, Gary Reed.  “Our new Odorless Hand Sanitizer not only eliminates virtually any contact odors, it helps you maintain good hygiene, limits the spread of germ and fits easily into a pocket or fanny pack.”

     The Odorless Hand Sanitizer removes all odors including gas, carbons, hydrocarbons, pungent odors, even knocking out contact odors like gun cleaning chemicals, smoke odors and food odors.  The FDA certified sanitizer cleans, disinfects, and is totally odorless in seconds.  It is ideal for clean up after field dressing animals, and helps limit the exposure to diseases that can be transferred to humans from animals like hogs. 

     The 4oz bottle when used as directed will provide 58-60 applications.  Use the scent free hand sanitizer:

    • After field dressing an animal
    • After cleaning a firearm or contact with gas
    • To remove all contact odors before leaving for the field including cigarette odors
    • After using the bathroom
    • Before eating or drinking anything
    • Before and after handling raw foods, fish, poultry, or eggs
    • After using a public phone
    • After riding public transportation
    • In schools and day care centers
    • After changing diapers
    • When one is sick
    • After shaking hands
    • After sneezing or coughing

     It just makes sense to use the new DDW Odorless Sanitizer to knock out odor and 99.9% of the common germs we come in contact with everyday.  The Odorless Hand Sanitizer has an MSRP of $4.99
