All about the Repell-em garbage bags and tablecloths

Archive for the 'Bug-free picnics' Category

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.  :)

The long Labor Day weekend is fast approaching, and Labor Day has long been a time to have the traditional family picnic!

So, pack up the fried chicken and potato salad, throw a baseball and bat in the back of the van, and be sure to have extra shoes and socks for the kids, especially if you’re going to be near water.

One more important picnic supply would be the Repell-em trash bags and tablecloths; don’t forget those, for heaven’s sake, or your picnic will be overcome by mosquitoes, flies, and gnats, not to even mention the possums, raccoons, and stray dogs.

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.

We went on a picnic today.  Ordinarily my husband doesn’t care for picnics, because he can’t stand the bugs.  Now that we have Repell-em tablecloths, though, that concern is gone and we’ve actually gone on several really fun picnics this summer.

A Repell-em tablecloth not only keeps the flying bugs, like mosquitoes and gnats, away from you and from your food, it also keeps the ants and other crawling insects away.  A picnic without ants!  Can you imagine?

Well, if you have a Repell-em tablecloth on your picnic table, you don’t have to imagine.  You’ll see for yourself.

Don’t worry about the ingredients in the Repell-em tablecloth harming your skin or your food, either.  Repell-em products are made of 100% natural ingredients, all of which are absolutely harmless.

I’ve had guests these past few days and we have been able to sit outside in absolute comfort.  We were not annoyed by pesky flies, or stinging mosquitoes, or chiggers.  We came inside not because we were driven by hordes of bugs, but because we wanted to.

Thanks to Repell-em, it’s comfortable in our yard now.  And back in the garden, all the vegetables are healthy

I can’t begin to tell you how wonderful it is to be able to enjoy the outdoors like we are this summer.    With Repell-em, the outdoors is almost as safe as the indoors!  No bugs and no animals to bother you,  and nothing but a breeze, some sunshine, a lawn chair, and some lemonade.

No bugs.  Not even a trace.  Thank you, Repell-em.
