Repell-em Blog

EcoSmartPlastics’ Repellem & Eco-smartbag products are among the most versatile products I’ve ever used!  Not only do these products do everything they’re supposed to do; they do much more!  It seems as if every week I discover more things these products can do, and do WELL!

How many trash bags have you ever bought that will not only be receptables for your garbage and trash but will also keep insects and animals away from your garbage and trash?  Or be made of 100% recyclable, biodegradable, natural ingredients?  Or keep your winter woolens safe from moths?  Or keep the deer and bugs away from your garden?

How many outdoor tablecloths have you ever bought that will also keep the mosquitoes and gnats away from your picnic?

How many such products have you used in the past that caused you to worry and hesitate to use in or near a child or a child’s room for fear of poison, since small children chew on pretty much everything?  With Ecosmartplastics Repellem products, you won’t have these worries.  100% natural, harmless ingredients.

Ecosmartplastics Repellem products don’t even harm the insects and animals it repels; they just, well, REPEL them.

Even the thickest, finest, and most expensive trash bags can not be set outside the night BEFORE the trash truck comes; dogs can smell that feast from miles around.  However, with Ecosmartplastics’ Repellem & Eco-smartbag products, you CAN set your trash outside on the curb the night before because animals simply can not detect the presence of even the stinkiest garbage if it’s inside a sealed Repellem bag.  How nice not to have to rise at dawn to run after the garbage truck with your bags of trash!!

There are more uses than these for Ecosmartplastics’ Repellem & Eco-smartbag products; check this blog each month for updates!  In the meantime, check our archives for all kinds of ways these products can be used.

Labor Day is Picnic Day for many people, and if the weather is good, just about the only thing that can ruin a picnic are the insects!  Flies, mosquitoes, gnats. . . these pesky pests can pretty much destroy any kind of outdoor activity, particularly if they smell FOOD.

Fortunately, it’s easy to thwart insects and have a wonderful, bug-free outdoor party.  Just don’t forget the EcoSmart Repellem!

Line the trash receptacles with Repellem trash bags.  There will be no insects near your garbage.

Cover your picnic tables with EcoSmart Repellem tableclothes.  There will be no bugs on or near your table, which means your food is safe, too!

Cut a Repellem trash bag into strips, and tie one around one leg of each lawn chair.  Anyone sitting in that chair will not be bothered by insects.

Tie a strip of Repellem around everybody’s ankle.  No matter where they might wander, they will not be annoyed by chiggers, mosquitoes, or any kind of insect.  Item:  honeybees don’t seem to be affected, which is actually a good thing.  Just try not to step on them!

EcoSmart Repellem products will turn any outdoor experience into an enjoyable, insect-free experience.

And just think how much safer your children will be, without the worry and danger of insect stings and bites! Harmless Repellem products are 100% recyclable and made of 100% natural ingredients.  They will not harm food, or any living thing; they just REPEL insects and animals.

Repellem doesn’t smell like chemicals, either.  That’s because they’re not made of chemicals!

Buy them right here.

We all want to do as much as we can to help the environment, but there are some things we just can’t do without!  Disposable trash bags are one of those things.

With EcoSmart Repellem trash bags, however, you can have the convenience of a large, strong trash bag AND the knowledge that you are doing a little bit to help the environment!

EcoSmart Repellem products are made of 100% natural ingredients, and are 100% biodegradable.  EcoSmart Repellem products are also ideal for so many other purposes around your home and the outdoors, as well!

Our products will help keep your home clean and green, and will also help keep your children safe, because Repellem products will not harm your children or your pets.  EcoSmart Repellem products do not kill any animal or insect; they REPEL them.  Our products in your home are one of the easiest and most convenient ways for you to be clean AND green!  Our products in your home will always mean that your home will have no insects or mice whatsoever.

They’re perfect for outdoor barbecuing and camping!

Better still, they’re on sale right now if you order them from Cabela’s!

Summer is camping time, and whether you’re going on a long-term serious camping trip or just putting up a tent in the back yard for the kids, camping is great!

However, sleeping outside brings another problem:  bugs.

This problem can be solved by using EcoSmart Repellem’s tent mats and covers, along with the trash bags and tablecloths.

Spread a tent mat underneath your tent’s floor, and spread another over the top of your tent.  Now you’re protected from almost every kind of insect and animal that exists!  You’re also protected from the rain!

Wouldn’t it be a lot more pleasant to camp with EcoSmart Repellem products?  You wouldn’t have to worry about insects or animals - while you’re sleeping AND while you’re eating around the campfire.

Your family would be a lot safer and less itchy if you included EcoSmart Repellem products in your gear.

It’s been a lovely day today: sunny and breezy and very, very hot.  The heat doesn’t bother me, but the bugs drive me CRAZY!

Why, then, was I sitting outside on my deack?

Because I had an EcoSmart Repellem tablecloth on my outdoor table, and there WERE NO BUGS.  Not one.

No mosquitoes.  No flies.  No gnats.  No wasps.  No ants.  No chigger bites on the two borrowed neighbor toddlers.

This is especially significant because we were eating canteloupe at that outdoor table, and we left the juicy rinds outside while we went to water the rosebushes.

When we got back to the mess on the table, there were still no insects of any kind on that mushy, slushy, strong-smelling (Y’all know what canteloupe smells like!)  pile of ickiness on our four plates.

I cleaned up the mess, threw it into an EcoSmart Repellem trash bag along with our supper leftovers, which included several corncobs and some chicken bones.  In an ordinary trash bag, this would have been an animal’s and an insect’s dream-come-true, but that trash bag has been sitting outside on the deck for hours now and nothing has touched it.

Oh, and those less-than-half-price EcoSmart Repellem trash bags I ordered from Cabela’s last Monday?  They arrived in three days.  THREE DAYS.  Whatta deal.

I went on a picnic today with my old high school girlfriends and our husbands.  Our state park shelter was open on two sides, and all around us were other shelters with large groups in them, too.

Funny thing, though. . . . all the other people in the park were slapping at mosquitoes and spraying smelly hazardous repellants on themselves and on their children.  Heaven only knows what their food tasted like after being so close to such strong-smelling stuff!

But in our park shelter, my friends and I were NOT slapping at mosquitoes.  We didn’t even have any ants!  There were no nasty odors from strong poisonous sprays at our picnic table.  The only time one of us got bitten was when a couple of the husbands walked across the parking lot to get something out of the car.

What was the difference between our picnic setup and everybody else’s?  Simple.  We had an EcoSmart Repellem tablecloth on our table, and two EcoSmart Repellem trash bags hanging off the ends of the unused table in our shelter.

And, we had no bugs.  Nope, not one.  I recommend EcoSmart Repellem products to all of you this summer, for your picnics, and for your general day-by-day living.  “No bugs” is nice, and extends to your home if you use EcoSmart Repellem products there, too.

I do.   Wouldn’t be without them!

EcoSmart Repellem tablecloths are IDEAL for those outdoor barbecues and picnics, whether you’re camping or just eating out on your own deck.  In case you haven’t noticed, the wasps are out in full force now, and so are the flies, gnats, ants, and all kinds of annoying, nasty little bugs.  Whenever you step outside, it’s almost as though you were a bug magnet!  And if you are trying to eat outside, well, bugs like to eat, too!  How annoying!

Unless, of course, you’ve got an EcoSmart Repellem tablecloth on your picnic table or deck table. With Repell-em at your picnic, you’ll be able to concentrate on the food and the company, and not have to worry about being annoyed and bitten. Don’t worry about the ingredients in Repell-em harming your kids or contaminating your food, either; Repell-em products are made of 100 natural ingredients and are absolutely harmless to people.

Your EcoSmart Repellem tablecloth will also keep the raccoons, possums, squirrels, and other animals away from your deck or picnic site.

You can use each EcoSmart Repellem tablecloth several times, too.  That’s green!

I will admit that I was skeptical when I first heard about Repell-em products.  After all, I lived out in the country and the insects and animals were just something I had to live with, right?  You set your trash outside too early, the animals tear it apart.  You put some fruit in a bowl, and the gnats go nuts.

But I learned after just a few days that Repell-em products really did what they claimed they’d do.  Ever since I started to use them, I’ve not had to crawl around in my yard, picking up garbage that had been scattered by raccoons and possums, neighbor’s dogs and my own cats.  I haven’t had to use any kind of vegetable or flower spray or dust; a little strip of Repell-em kept all the bugs away from my garden and my roses.  When we eat out on the deck, we are not troubled by flies or bees or gnats, because the pretty red Repell-em tablecloth keeps away all the pests.

I can recommend Repell-em products to all of you because I tried them myself.  I now use them exclusively.

You should, too.

The safety of our children is one of the most important things in our lives.  We would move mountains if that’s what it took to keep our children safe.

Repell-em products want to help you keep your children safe, too.  That’s why they are made with 100% natural ingredients, and are completely harmless to all living things.  Peppermint, citronella, rosemary, cloves, lemons, geraniums, apples. . . these yummy or good-smelling things are all Repell-em ingredients.  Amazingly, the combination creates an aroma that insects and animals simply can not bear!  Even more amazing?  Repell-em products smell so good, your guests will think you’ve got an expensive candle in the house!

Repell-em tablecloths guarantee that no insect will come near your child at the table or near it.  Repell-em trashbags guarantee that no insect or animal will come near your child at a picnic site or the back yard.  Little strips of Repell-em around your child’s wrist and ankle ensure that no chiggers or mosquitoes or ticks will annoy or hurt your child.

Because Repell-em products are completely harmless - they won’t even hurt the bugs; they just repel them! - you don’t have to worry about insect repellent poisons, etc.  Repell-em products contain no poison, not in any way, shape, or form.  Just those harmless, natural ingredients that are perfectly safe, and that help you keep your child safe, too.

Today is Labor Day, but insects and other pests do not take holidays.  In fact, holidays are fantastic times to use Repell-em products, because on holidays there are always more people and more food and more, well, garbage.

Many people like to picnic on Labor Day, and what is a picnic without bees, ants, flies, and gnats?  Put a Repell-em tablecloth on the picnic table and put a Repell-em trash bag in the wastebasket and you’ll not see any of the usual picnic pests.

Won’t it be wonderful not to have to brush the bugs off your slice of watermelon before you eat it?

You don’t have to worry about the ingredients in Repell-em, either.  There is nothing in a Repell-em product that is in any way harmful to a human being.  Repell-em products are made of 100% natural ingredients.

So put a Repell-em tablecloth on your picnic table and a Repell-em trash bag in the garbage can and you’ll be all set to have a bug-free, pest-free Labor Day picnic.

Try not to eat too much.  You’ve got a volleyball game in a few minutes.
