I'm a big Marvel fan and a big hunting fan. I had this thought today as I was out scouting. "If I had the Infinity Gauntlet and could snap away something annoying in the woods, what would it be?" I was debating between spiders, mosquitos and poison ivy. If I had to choose, it would probably be poison ivy since I am severely allergic and it always seems to be on the perfect tree for my ambush location.

So, if you had the ultimate power to completely remove something from the woods, what would it be?

It would be Ticks for me. Those nasty little buggers just carry way to many diseases.

Mosquitoes in these FL swamps

I use 2 Thermacells and a Shannon’s Bug Tamer suit all at the same time in some spots

You guys have the basics covered, so I will say public land litter. I saw multiple old tube TVs dumped a few days ago! C'mon!

Mosquitoes were a close second for me. My Thermacell works pretty well to handle them but it would be nice to not have them at all.

I don’t worry about mosquitos all that much anymore. I wear synthetic long sleeve shirts, along with long pants... and everything is generously coated in permethrin. They don’t follow you around near as much when they touch permethrin every time they attempt a bite.

Permethrin is the jam! Used it for the first time on a mission trip in Honduras this summer and I didn’t even see a mosquito. Going to treat my hunting gear this fall.

All invasive species of plants and animals gone except wild hog gets a pass. Human population set to around the same population as the1800s-1850s. No internet.... Sorry saddle hunter forum. I think the world would be better without it

That’s a great one! I hunt a public land area in the backwaters of the TN river and all that river trash gets deposited when the water gets high. It would be really nice if it turned to dust.
