Pop-Up Blinds????

[arodgers21]

I am looking to purchase a pop-up blind. Curious though, since they are so warm especially for bow hunting in Texas, does anyone ever have trouble w/ critters getting in, (i.e. snakes, scorpions, etc.)? I also am curious do people that own pop up blinds use them year round or seasonally. I am curious if people are starting to swing toward the pop up blind due to versatility rather than a fixed permanent stand that is where it is? Any response or insight would be greatly appreciated, and will definetley help me make a good decision. Last question, which pop-up would you personally recommend?

Since you usually carry a popup blind in your pack or in a gear bag to your hunting area and set it up and immediately get in to hunt and then you take it with you when you leave you wouldn't normally need to worry about critters being in there when you get in or crawling in with you too much.

Most of them the fabric breaths some and have enough small window areas that you can open slightly and they allow some air to flow through which also means you need to set it up down wind of the area you are hunting like a watering hole, feed field, etc just as you normally would so the wind hits you in the face and goes out the back of the blind.
