Repell-em Keeps Weevils Out of Your Flour!
Posted in Unique gift, household use, Child/Infant safety, Child safety, environmentally safe products, green marketing, Safety, Food Safety, Helpful Hints, Repell-emI love to bake homemade bread and pies, so I buy flour in twenty-pound bags. Few things annoy me more than opening that huge bag of flour and discovering. . . weevils.
But this season, even though weevils flourish in southern Indiana autumns, I haven’t noticed a single weevil in my flour, nor in my cornmeal, or cereals, or oatmeal, or anything else “powdery” and purchased in bulk. That’s because my large bag of flour has a little piece of wadded-up Repell-em in it, and so do all of my other bags and boxes of things weevils love.
I don’t have to worry about Repell-em products harming my family or contaminating our food, because Repell-em is made of 100% natural ingredients that are completely and totally harmless to people, even to tiny babies! And even though Repell-em products smell really good, their smell doesn’t “bleed into” any foods you are using the Repell-em in.
So if you are a baker like me, or even if you’re not, try putting just a little piece of wadded-up Repell-em inside LARGE bags of flour, etc. The weevils won’t bother your cereals and smaller bags or boxes if there is Repell-em anywhere near where you store them. I keep pieces of Repell-em in my pantry, and everything in there is safe.
Repell-em products are wonderful. I don’t know how I managed without them!

I have a terrible moth & weevil infestation like I have never had before. Also two of my neighbors are inundated with same problem. We suspect the little critters may have come in with dry pet food. So much time & energy cleaning, to say nothing of money spent replacing items infested with the bugs. We would appreciate information on your product, REPELL-EM.

Dear Charlene,
I think my weevils came in with the big 25-pound sack of flour I bought at Sam’s Club. They spread to everything: the cornmeal, the cat food, the rice, pretty much everything that was edible and dry. I tried everything; for a while, bay leaves seemed to work, but they lost their “spark” after a while and the bugs came back.
When I started writing for Repell-em, the product was so new, we weren’t really sure what all it would do besides keep large animals away from your trash, so I did all kinds of experiments myself, right here in my own house.
What I discovered was, that Repell-em was like magic.
Every month, I cut a Repell-em trash bag into squares and place them here and there in my pantry, and INSIDE the bags or cannisters (I tape it to the underside of the cannister lid) and I have not had a single weevil, moth, or any other kind of horrible bug (they’re all horrible if they’re in your house, in my opinion) since. Repell-em is 100% natural, so it won’t harm anything or anyone, and it won’t poison or taint your food. It doesn’t kill, even the bugs, but it drives them away! It really does work. I just got our winter coats out for the season, and they’re as perfect as if I’d stored them at the dry cleaner’s, and it’s because I hung each coat inside a Repell-em trash bag. We’ve got Repell-em in the backs of all our closets - it keeps the moths away, and also the mice!
But those pesky weevils were so icky and nasty and EXPENSIVE (think of the wasted foods!) that I decided to see if Repell-em would work on them, and it DID.
I recommend it. Not because I work for them, because I don’t. I just write for them. I recommend Repell-em because I use it myself and it works.
Thank you so very much for inquiring.
Sincerely,
–Jane
