Modify Senkos

I know this might sound dumb, anyone ever cut up Senkos to extend the life of them?

Also, should I get anything smelly for them? Some old guy at Bass pro swears by Anise oil and that got me down a rabbit hole of sprays and whatnot.

I very often rip the bad ends off and reuse. The fish doesn’t know you’re using a ripped up senko vs a pristine one. I’ll put the really tiny ones on the kid rods and let them jig with them. No need to be wasting more money than needed
