starlight bloodhound?
I have attempted to use starlight blood hound last year on a doe I shot late one evening. I mixed both bottles as directed but nothing happened when I sprayed blood. It actually just washed it out. has anyone used this? do you have to have a UV light to detect it? Anyone else have use this product with or without success?

RE: starlight bloodhound?
no, I have never used it, and I don' t know anyone who has.
I was told by a friend of mine, but never tried it, that if you walk through the woods following a blood trail with a coleman propane lantern that it will make the blood have a slight glow or easy tracking.....personally, I don' t know how it is possible to make a glow on the blood with a lantern, but he said it works. I' m going to test it this year

I had the opposite problem with that crap. It seemed to light up almost everything. I could sprayit in any given direction/height and get some sort of glow out of it. Point blank Useless!!.
Somebody should sue them jokers for selling such garbage.

I know there are certain chemicals that do make blood glow under a blacklight, In fact if I remember correctly blood will glow by itself under a blacklight, I remember seeing this somewhere. Never tried starlight bloodhound but I have heard from many sources that a coleman lantern works great.

PA I think you are correct that blood will glow under blacklight hopefully a lawenforcement type will chime in here and tell us for sure , if so it would be nice to have a flashlight with a blacklight bulb .

RE: starlight bloodhound?
just curious, what will peroxide do? seems to bubble on everything. i have tried to get in touch with the manufacturer on several occasions but there number is disconnected. go figure. i have used a coleman lantern before, does nothing other than make you sweat like a pig and provide better light than provided by my mini flahslight. doesn' t illuminate or make blood sparkle in my opinion.

RE: starlight bloodhound?
Youre right the lantern gives better tracking light but no special effects but it works well for me. The peroxide will foam when it contacts blood. The bloodhound is just another gimmick that dont work.
