Interesting thought on motor oil.  I'll bet the woods just reek of it, at least to a deer's nose.  Logging isn't too clean an industry.  Thinking about how much oil my saw throws around the woods, it kind of makes perfect sense that the deer could be fooled by clothes contaminated with the stuff.

About what I thought. Sometimes I'd shut my saw down,look up and see deer just watching.  Animals will walk right through a side, right past carriages and five gallon buckets of oil and such. I don't think the residual mess is any real issue.
