This extra-hot summer weather doesn’t keep outdoor-lovers indoors, and the excess of insects that are swarming everywhere because of that same humidity and heat can’t keep outdoor-lovers inside, either!

Just because there are bugs everywhere, that doesn’t mean we have to put up with them. Just a few EcoSmart Plastics Repellem and Eco-smartbag products here and there in your house and car will keep almost every single insect away.

Camping? Be sure to bring your Repellem tent mat. There won’t be a single bug in your tent. Put a Repellem trash bag in the bottom of your sleeping bag, and there won’t be any bugs in there, either. In fact, put a Repellem trash bag by your campsite and a Repellem tablecloth on your camp table, and you can leave the fly swatter at home.

With EcoSmart Repellem products, you can also leave the dangerous bug sprays at home, too.  Better yet?  Leave those things at the store.  With Repellem, you won’t need anything else.

This is been the wettest, rainiest, stormiest spring in living memory, and with the moisture come the bugs.  Bugs love wet.  Bugs love humidity.Just mowing the grass, in the bright sunshine, the gnats, mosquitoes, ticks, chiggers, and you-name-it come out in droves, sensing fresh blood.  You can spray your body with expensive chemicals and the bugs will just gnaw around it.However, there’s a way to spend some outdoor time without risking dangerous smelly chemicals.  It’s easy. Just tie a strip of EcoSmart Plastics and Repellem around your ankle, and the bugs will give you a wide berth.    Tie a few strips around sticks and place them in your garden, and your tomatoes will be bug-free, too.On your deck, tie some Repellem strips here and there on the posts, and you can sit on your swing or cook out without constantly batting the bugs away.  There will BE no bugs.EcoSmart Plastics and Repellem products are wonderful in any season, but in the hot, humid summer weather you’ll be even more grateful that you’ve got ‘em!They’re absolutely 100% safe to use on your tiny children, too.

DSCF2129Look closely at my tomato garden and you will see that each tomato cage has been wound with a strip of Repell-em, and between the scent, the ends waving in the breeze, and the large Repell-em piece acting as a scarecrow there on the end, I really believe we’re going to get some tomatoes for ourselves this year.

I don’t have to worry about “insect repellent” touching my food and contaminating it in any way, because Repell-em products are made of 100% natural ingredients and are completely harmless.

The cats were used to playing in that railroad flat all winter, and it’s really funny to watch them go running toward it and then stop short, look around with a bewildered expression, and then turn and walk away.  The deer have been using that garden patch as a salad bar all winter, but now that there is actual food in it, they behave as though they can’t even see or smell it.  That’s because they can’t.  The EcoSmartPlastics Repellem strips have rendered my tomatoes unplottable!

Here’s a closer shot of a few tomato cages, so you can see in greater detail what I’ve done with the strips of Repell-em. It’s nothing fancy, obviously, but so far it’s working like a charm!

There are so many uses for your Repell-em products. So far, every experiment I’ve done with them has been successful!

All the climate scientists are reminding us that this summer’s batch of insects is the worst in a long, long time, but EcoSmartPlastics Repellem can ensure that your cookouts and picnics are bug-free, too.  And if you go for a pleasant summer walk, make it even more pleasant by tying a strip of Repellem around your ankle and wrist.  You’ll stroll absolutely unmolested by mosquitoes, gnats, chiggers, and any other summer blood-sucking pest.

EcoSmart Repellem products are almost like magic; they work so well, and are completely harmless.  Amazing!

I mowed our lawn yesterday afternoon.  We have five acres, so it takes a while.

Some of the lawn we hadn’t mown all summer, so you can imagine that the grass was pretty darn tall.  I really didn’t want to ride the mower through it, because I KNEW what was living in that tall grass: chiggers.

I’ve had terrible chigger experiences before, and I can tell you right up front that I did NOT want to ever repeat that.  And yet, the tall grass had to be mown.

So, I tied a strip of EcoSmart Repellem around my ankle and around my wrist, crossed my fingers, and got it done.

Not a single chigger bothered me.  I don’t have a single chigger bite, anywhere.  Those two skinny little strips of EcoSmart Repellem kept me safe for HOURS, out there in the tall grass.  The gnats didn’t bother me, either; not even when I ran the mower over a bunch of soft, dead, bug-filled wood that was hidden in the tall grass.  Wasps just flew right past me, as if they didn’t even notice me.  No flies buzzed around me.  No mosquitoes screamed in my ear just before diving in for the kill.

I emerged from that field covered with burrs, seeds, and fuzz, but entirely and 100% unmolested by insects!

It’s miraculous, I’m tellin’ ya.

I don’t know how we lived here before we discovered EcoSmart Repellem products.  I’m serious.  You can purchase EcoSmart Repellem products right here; what are you waiting for?

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.

Summer vacation is winding to a close; school starts in just a week in some areas!  Families are trying to spend as much “together time” as possible, and this means, for many people, CAMPING!

Of course, trying to sleep or even just relax inside a tent on a hot, humid, summer night doesn’t always work out, either. When the night is hot and humid, the insects come out with a vengeance and a passion for human blood that has to be experienced to be believed. No amount of bug spray can keep them away.

In fact, there’s only one thing that effectively keeps the mosquitoes, flies, chiggers, gnats, and other insects out of your tent, and that one thing is EcoSmart Repellem.

We make all kinds of camping products: tent mats, tent covers, tablecloths, trash bags. . . and our products are not only superior in every way, they also keep away the bugs!

If you take EcoSmart Repellem with you on our camping trip, you will be able to sleep peacefully, for there will be no whines, buzzes, wings, stings, or bites. Not a single one. Your nights will be spent in blissful dreamland, with not a bug anywhere near.  Think how much safer your children will be!

EcoSmart Repellem products will also keep the possums, raccoons, skunks, and other animals away from your campsite.

Before you even begin to load the car for your camping trip, be sure you’ve got EcoSmart Repellem. Without it, you’ll be stung and itchy; with it, you’ll have a blast!

Our products are made of 100% natural ingredients and are 100% biodegradable!

When you were a small child,  how many times were you miserable in your little bed on hot summer nights, writhing in an agony of itching chigger and mosquito bites?  If you were like most kids, and spent most of your time outdoors in summer, I’m betting you spent a LOT of miserable nights like that.  After all, back then, the only insect repellents were stinky, didn’t work all that well, and had to be reapplied constantly.

It’s not that way now.  Now, EcoSmart Repellem has made it easy as can be to keep your children safe from insect bites while they play outdoors.  Just cut a few strips from an EcoSmart Repellem trash bag or tablecloth, and tie one around your child’s wrist and another around an ankle.  There, you’ve protected your children from insects!

I’m not kidding, either.  It really is just this simple!  Those two little strands of EcoSmart Repellem will keep almost all insects away from your child ALL DAY.  In fact, the strips will be good the next day, too, and the next!

You don’t have to worry about harm to your child’s delicate skin, either.  Repellem products are made of 100% natural ingredients and are completely harmless in every way.

So, when your children want to play outside – and isn’t that where children belong in summer, especially? – tie some Repellem around their wrist and ankle and send them out the door without a worry of insect bites.

On those summer nights, your children will sleep comfortably and soundly, because there won’t be a single itchy bug bite on them, anywhere.

When people search for products that help make a home clean and green, trash bags are not usually one of the first things that come to mind.

However, when you think about it, the trash is where strong, smelly things live, and those strong smelling things attract insects and animals.  Put strong smelly things in an inferior trash bag, and you’re spreading a buffet for every bug and critter in the neighborhood.

However, if you put strong smelly things in a Repellem trash bag, insects and animals will behave as though they didn’t even notice.  That’s because they DON’T notice.  The ingredients in Repellem products really do repel.

So go ahead and set your trash outside the night before it’s picked up.  You an’t do that with a Hefty bag, but you sure can do it with a Repell-em trash bag!

When my children were babies, I was afraid to put them on a blanket in the grass because I was afraid that an insect might bite them.

Now, I would just lay a Repell-em tablecloth on the grass, cover it with a small blanket, lay the baby on it, and not waste a second worrying about bugs.  Repell-em won’t let a bug anywhere NEAR your baby.

Insects can seriously harm an infant.  Ticks, fleas, bees, chiggers, even ants, can sting or bite.  But with Repell-em at your side, you can let your baby learn about nature by being out IN nature!

Don’t worry for even a moment about Repell-em and your baby; Repell-em is made of 100% natural ingredients, all of which are absolutely harmless to all humans, even tiny babies.

It’s important for babies and small children to get outside, and to learn to enjoy and appreciate nature.  With Repell-em, it’s SAFE for them to explore this wonderful world, as well!

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.
