Repell-em Blog

Spring is here, and already dedicated campers are out in the woods, sleeping in tents, cooking over campfires, and enjoying life in the outdoors.

Even campers have trash, and Mother Nature doesn’t take kindly to having garbage strewn all over her grassy carpets. This is exactly what happens, however, when garbage is set out in regular clear or white trash bags. Animals can smell the goodies inside from miles away, and they don’t mind being called litterbugs, because they will tear those regular trash bags to pieces and scatter the contents everywhere.

Today’s wise campers will take Repell-em products with them to the campsite. Repell-em tent mats and liners will keep insects and animals out of the tent. Repell-em tablecloths will keep insects and animals away from your picnic table. Strips of Repell-em bags around your wrist or ankle will keep insects away from you when you walk or hike. And when you bag your trash in a Repell-em trash bag, it will not only keep the bugs away from your campsite, it will also repel most animals as well.

The natural ingredients in Repell-em products are repellent to bugs and animals, but the combination of these ingredients smells very pleasant to humans. Many people say that Repell-em products smell like expensive scented candles!

The Repell-em Contest is over, and here are our winners!

First Prize - $75.00 in Repell-em products – goes to Melissa of Pennsylvania. Melissa impressed us with her poetry:

Insects, animals, pests, and more, Will do whatever they can to get in my door.

I try and I try to keep them away, But it seems they are here forever to stay.

They make me squirm, itch, and twitch; I wish I could chase them away with no hitch.

I found this cool site while surfing one day; Repell-em products will make them go away.

So I ordered a case and got ’em sent to my home; No more bugs and animals around my house shall roam!

No more ants at my picnic, no more raccoons in the trash; Repell-em products work – for not much cash.

Now I am happy as can be. Thanks, Repellem, for saving me!

Thank you, Melissa, for entering the Repell-em Contest. Enjoy your winnings!

Second Prize - $50.00 in Repell-em products – goes to Doug, the Boy Scout Leader. Doug told us, in his comment, that “I think Repell-em products are cool because as a Boy Scout leader who participates in most of the camping, I like the campsite to be as comfortable as possible to everyone. The Scouts can have greater satisfaction in their outdoor experience with fewer bugs around. A more satisfying experience means the longer the young adults will participate in the program. The longer they participate, the more character building occurs. So Repell-em can help build character in youth and shape the future of this country!”

Thank you, Doug, for entering the Repell-em Contest. We hope you enjoy your winnings, too!

Third Prize – $25.00 in Repell-em products – goes to Patricia, who never goes camping without Repell-em! Here is what she had to say: “We don’t go camping without Repell-em bags. They are perfect for after-meal clean-up, and we don’t have to worry about the raccoons at night. I feel better knowing that MY little critters are safe from toxic fumes. My daughters know that we are helping the environment by choosing biodegradable bags. So, everyone is happy.”

Thank you, Patricia. We’re glad you entered our contest, and we hope you enjoy your winnings, too.

I just ordered two sets of tent mats for my brother and his two sons. They live in the Rockies and camp a LOT. Both boys have insect allergies and they are really excited about giving the Repell-em tent mats a try.

I’m betting that the next camping trip they go on will be a lot easier, and that this time they won’t come home wheezing and covered with medication.

I’m betting that the next camping trip they go on will be nothing but insect-free fun.

I’m also sending them a couple of Repell-em trash bags to use by their campsite. Not only will their trash repel all the insects – yes, even the mosquitoes! – but my brother and my nephews won’t have to worry about any little wild critters trying to make off with their food!

Repell-em products are IDEAL for campers, hikers, picnickers, people who just like to sit outside, and anybody who doesn’t want bugs and wild animals in or near their home.

Wouldn’t that be everybody?

Need a great gift for a Boy/Girl Scout? How about a tent mat that repels insects and animals? I used to camp out a lot when I was in Scouts, and I loved it, all but the bugs. I would wake up in the morning covered with itchy mosquito bites, and that was bad enough, but the occasional spider bites and “mystery bites” were often painful. I hated those bugs. I also hated the raccoons and possums and squirrels, etc, that would sneak into the campsite and even inside my tent in the night and help themselves to my candy bars and marshmallows.

If I’d had a Repell-em tent mat, I could have enjoyed a great night’s sleep out in the great outdoors and I wouldn’t have had to worry about getting bitten and attacked by the wildlife while I slept. It would also have been a lot more comfortable than putting my sleeping bag down on the hard ground.

If you’ve got a child who is a Scout, think about ordering some Repell-em tent mats. If you are a Scout leader, do more than just think about it. Nobody likes to be eaten alive by insects, and nobody likes to toss and turn all night on lumpy ground. With a Repell-em tent mat, both problems are solved!

You can buy most Repell-em products at most large Cabela’s stores, or you can order them online.
