Mors has forgotten more than many so-called "experts" will ever know - what a wealth of experience! (And the breathing behind the scenes wasn't as bad this time...) Thanks for the excellent vid!
Love the military looking camouflage jacket paired with the black hat with the Pom Pom!
True style
Mors....still going strong. Thanks for educating us with your knowledge.
The Godfather of bushcraft
As always, nothing beats hands on experience. Many thanks for the info and looking forward to the scarf video!
A lot of good info I have found that by rubbing a dryer sheet over your skin helps!
The legend speaks again
Great vid! Thanks. I recently went duck hunting and for got my mosquito repellent, big mistake I got bit approximately 30 times mostly on the arms. Now I keep the mosquito repellent in my pack at all times.
Thanks, Mors for another great video. In depth scarf video would be awesome!
Great video. This is one area that can drive you nuts with all of the products available. Here he makes good sense. Citronella works great in the coils I didn't know there was an oil need to get some. I did learn some good things. Thanks.
Another great video, many thanks.
Also, I'd be thrilled to see a video dedicated to the scarf, as others have mentioned below.
Wow! 6-12 I have not heard about that for a looooooooooooong time (the '70s) it was issued by the Canadian Military. I don't know why they discountinued it as it was the cats meow of bug repellent in the day.
That's correct. Health Canada banned the sale of products containing more than 30% Deet in 2002 with even lower percentages recommended for kids.
Would love to see a video exclusively on the scarf and its many uses.
Thanks for the video! One with the scarf would be awesome
I loved smoking pipe tobacco to keep the bugs away. At the beginning if each camping trip I would blow smoke down the sleeves of my shirts and jacket. That seemed to work real well. I quit smoking 11 years ago, so I switched to thermacell or 30% deet. I keep sage as well for tossing in the edge of the fire to burn in the coals. I definitely want to try the false tinder fungus.
I'm really looking forward to a in depth scarf video.
I prefer to consume garlic which will infuse your sweat and it is a natural repellant. But combine with smoke, it works much better. Permetherin is good for clothes to keep chiggers and ticks away but seems to be heavily restricted in Canada.
I use Skin-so-soft, it works better than anything else I have ever used. Matter if fact I wont use anything else
funny he says oil of citronella is hard to find here in Australia we can buy it just about anywhere I have a 4l (1gallon) bottle in the shed right now. Citronella products are a must here in the land of bugs lol. Great video could watch this man all day.
He's in Canada, specifically central Alberta. Northern Alberta is almost entirely a swamp, and to the east, in Manitoba, the common joke is that their provincial bird is the mosquito because as the temperature drops below ~30º there is a steady hum in air from the sheer number of bugs. Not saying we have drums of citronella, I really don't know but I haven't seen any, just saying we have our fair share of bugs as well. I've been to Australia, between Brisbane to Toowoomba and further to Moree, I'm sure there are areas with worse bug problems (I hear the northern areas like Darwin are fair bit swampy), but in the areas we were at the bugs were about equal in number or less then in Canada (with a much worse bite of course. Seriously WTF, even your ants hurt worse then our wasps)
Hooray for smoke! Absolutely.
My dad used to make his own out of kerosene, deet, and a few other terrible smells. Every summer we got doused when getting firewood in the late 70's.
Just think of the videos we could watch if he had you tube when he started bush craft
I've had good results with dryer sheets such as Bounce. Worn in a pocket, tucked into your collar, secured on the upwind side of sleeping arrangements. Any one else used these?
This is an old timer trick. Works quite well
I'm going to give it a try, I wonder what the active ingredient is?
They don't like surgical spirit or rubbing alcohol on the skin but it wears off especially in hot weather, they prefer people who eat lots of sugar too, so go into the woods with someone with a sweet tooth!
Loving the Videos. It would be much more enjoyable if we could hear Mr. Kochanski. Perhaps a microphone in the future?
volume control is your friend.. peace
sound was fine
Is there any chance Kelly or someone could make the video how to make a stretcher from a survival scarf?
where can i buy one of those scarf / skeeter net that has 50 uses?
A comet? That's some old school Jerzy Kosinski Painted Bird shit.
Sound is too low.
Probably because your camera doesn't pick up your voice as well as a mic attached to your lapel would...
Mors' sound is never too low. Our speakers are too quiet! :D
Where can you find more information on the long bag scarf?

I swear these vids get quieter all the time and I can barely hear them as it is.
Put deet on your hands and go play with your video camera and see what happens ;o) I use a local product called Seet-adle :D Made from all natural products. Works really good. Doesn't last as long as deet but it's not poison anyway :o)
I use an Avon product called skin-so-soft works great for me but it does not work for everyone
" in living color"...whooo!
I like 80% DEET. You only use it when things are desperate. You only use a tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny amount. 15hours 1gram 90% effective. 19hours 1gram 80% effective (landing rates).
For me I'd rather a tiny amount of 80% DEET then applying too much 30%. Though I guess more dilude means more even distribution.
A stick with some leaves on it, the wonders of tool use, just made yourself a tail.
Clove oil is good
I had to revisit, because for the life of me, I can't seem to find this scarf with the mosquito net sewn in, anywhere. Can Mors, or anybody at Karamat help with any info? Peace y'all
Whiskey River ruclips.net/video/b2P1iGc8CVw/видео.html. Yeah, I Know...just a wee bit late.....sorry. :)
What dollar store. So I can keep an eye out for the hat.👍
Does anyone else have trouble hearing him?😢
Thanks for the tips and for sharing your experience, I'm always glad to learning from you, take care Taro
